Quality of Service (QoS)
The Dell Networking operating software (FTOS) commands for quality of service (QoS) include traffic conditioning and
congestion control. QoS commands are supported on the S500 switch.
This chapter contains the following sections:
• Global Configuration Commands
• Per-Port QoS Commands
• Policy-Based QoS Commands
Global Configuration Commands
There is only one global configuration QoS command.
qos-rate-adjust
By default, while rate limiting, policing, and shaping, FTOS does not include the Preamble, SFD, or the IFG fields. These
fields are overhead; only the fields from MAC destination address to the CRC are used for forwarding and are included in
these rate metering calculations. You can optionally include overhead fields in rate metering calculations by enabling
QoS Rate Adjustment.
