2. Create network-qos type policy-map to define the actions for traffic classes, such as a buffer configuration and threshold.

Configure egress buffer
All port queues are allocated with reserved buffers. When the reserved buffers are consumed, each queue starts using the shared buffers
from the default pool.
The following table lists the values allocated for the default egress buffers on the S4100-ON series platform. These values may differ for
different platforms and speeds. Use the
show qos egress buffers command to view the default egress buffers on your switch.

The default dynamic shared buffer threshold is 8.
1. Create a queuing type class-map to match the queue.

2. Create a queuing type policy-map to define the actions for queues, such as a buffer configuration and threshold.

Deep Buffer mode
NOTE:
This feature is supported only on the S4200-ON series.
OS10 provides the flexibility to configure the buffer mode based on your system requirements. The system memory contains a list of
packet buffers and per packet information (PPI), which is used to enable statistics tagging, ingress shaping, PFC, and output logical
interface stamping per multicast traffic.
The S4200-ON series switch comes with a default deep buffer of 4.63 GB. You can use the hardware deep-buffer-mode
command to enhance this deep buffer to 6.24 GB. For information on how to configure deep buffer mode, see Configure Deep Buffer
mode. The following lists the total buffer availability in the different modes:
Table 93. Buffer availability in different modes
Platform Default deep buffer Enhanced deep buffer
S4200–ON series 4.63 GB 6.24 GB
Deep Buffer mode takes effect only after saving it in the startup configuration and reloading the switch.
NOTE:
Disabling the Deep Buffer mode configuration during run-time is not supported.
Restrictions
Deep Buffer mode and network QoS configurations cannot coexist. Enable Deep Buffer mode only when the network QoS configurations;
for example LLFC and PFC are disabled. To configure Deep Buffer mode, disable all network QoS related configurations.
