tx-queue
tx-queue
To configure the transmit queue parameters for an interface, use the tx-queue command. To return to the
default value, use the no form of this command.
tx-queue [queue-id] {bandwidt h ban dwidth-rate | priority high | shape shape-rate}
no tx-queue
Syntax Description
Defaults The default settings are as follows:
Encapsulation type is dependent on the platform or interface hardware .
QoS enabled bandwidth rate is 4:255.
QoS disabled bandwidth r ate is 255:1.
Command Modes Interface configur ation mode
Usage Guidelines The bandwidth and shape rates cannot exceed the maximum speed of the interface.
The bandwidth can be configured only on the following:
Ports on the WS-X4306-G B module
The two 1000BASE-X ports on the WS-X4232-GB-RJ module
The first two ports on the WS-X441 8-GB module
The two 1000BASE-X ports on the WS-X4412-2GB-TX modul e
Only transmit queue 3 can be configured to be a high-priority transmit queue.
Examples This example shows how to allocate ba ndwidth on queue 1 to 100 Mbps:
Switch(config-if)# tx-queue 1
Switch(config-if-tx-queue)# bandwidth 1000000000
Switch(config-if-tx-queue)#
This example shows how to configure transmit queue 3 to the high priority:
Switch(config-if)# tx-queue 3
Switch(config-if-tx-queue)# priority high
Switch(config-if-tx-queue)#
queue-id (Optional) Number of the queue; valid values are from 1 to 4.
bandwidth bandwidth-rate Specifies traffic ban dwidth; valid values are fr om 16000 to
1000000000 bits per second.
priority high Specifies high priority.
shape shape-rate Specifies the maximum rate that packets are passed through a
transmit queue; valid values are from 16000 to 1000000000 bits per
second.
