Example command line commands.
To display a DSCP mapping from the command line, type the following:
dscp <code> ?
Where <code> is a valid DSCP code from 0 to 63, or 64 (but see note below).
To change the value of a parameter, use the following command:
dscp <code> q <value>
Where <code> is a valid DSCP code and <value> is from 0 to 9.
To set the default mapping value, enter the command:
dscp 64 q <value>
Where <value> is the default queue number required and has a value from 0 to 9.
Note:
DSCP code 64 is not actually a valid code but is used to set up the default priority.
Queue Profiles
Configuration – Network > QoS> Queue Profiles
Up to 12 distinct queue “profiles” may be defined using this page that may then be assigned
to QoS queues as required. The queue profile determines how QoS queues with that profile
assigned to them will behave.
Queue
This is the queue number that relates to the queues defined in the DCSP mappings page.
Minimum kbps
The value in this text box sets the minimum data transfer rate in kilobits/second that the
router will try to attain for the queue.
Maximum kbps
The value in this text box sets the maximum data transfer rate in kilobits/second that the
router will try to attain for this queue. This means that if the router determines that
bandwidth is available to send more packets from a queue that has reached its Minimum
kbps setting, it will send more packets from that queue until the Maximum kbps setting is
reached.
Note that if the bandwidth on a queue should be restricted, setting the Maximum kbps
value to the same as, or lower than the Minimum kbps value ensures that only the
Minimum kbps setting will be achieved.
Maximum Packet Queue Length
The value in this text box specifies the maximum length of a queue in terms of the number
of packets in the queue. Any packets received by the router that would cause the maximum
length to be exceeded, are dropped.
WRED Minimum Threshold
The value in this text box specifies the minimum queue length threshold for using the WRED
algorithm to drop packets. Once the queue length exceeds this value, the WRED algorithm
may cause packets to be dropped.
