Concept Guide

To congure the weight factor for WRED and ECN capabilities, global buer pools for multiple queues, and associating a service class with
ECN marking, perform the following:
1 Congure the weight factor for the computation of average-queue size. This weight value applies to front-end ports.
QOS-POLICY-OUT mode
DellEMC(conf-qos-policy-out)#wred—profile weight number
2 Congure a WRED prole, and specify the threshold and maximum drop rate.
WRED mode
DellEMC(conf-wred) #wred—profile thresh-1
DellEMC(conf-wred) #threshold min 100 max 200 max-drop-rate 40
3 Congure another WRED prole, and specify the threshold and maximum drop rate.
WRED mode
DellEMC(conf-wred) #wred—profile thresh-2
DellEMC(conf-wred) #threshold min 300 max 400 max-drop-rate 80
4 Create a global buer pool that is a shared buer pool accessed by multiple queues when the minimum guaranteed buers for the
queue are consumed.

DellEMC(conf) #service-pool wred weight pool0 11 pool1 4
Guidelines for Conguring ECN for Classifying and
Color-Marking Packets
Keep the following points in mind while conguring the marking and mapping of incoming packets using ECN elds in IPv4 headers:
• Currently Dell EMC Networking OS supports matching only the following TCP ags:
– ACK
– FIN
– SYN
– PSH
– RST
– URG
In the existing software, ECE/CWR TCP ag qualiers are not supported.
• Because this functionality forcibly marks all the packets matching the specic match criteria as ‘yellow’, Dell EMC Networking OS does
not support Policer based coloring and this feature concurrently.
• If single rate two color policer is congured along with this feature, then by default all packets less than PIR would be considered as
“Green” But ‘Green’ packets matching the specic match criteria for which ‘color-marking’ is congured will be over-written and
marked as “Yellow”.
• If two rate three color policer is congured along with this feature then,
– x < CIR – will be marked as “Green”
