To add a queue group to an Ethernet port

Before you begin

You can create a port queue group on an Ethernet port after creating an Ingress/Egress Queue Group Template policy.

Note: You must use the same name for the port queue group and Ingress/Egress Queue Group Template policy.

Steps


1	On the equipment tree, navigate to the port object where you need to add a queue group. The path is Network→NE→Shelf→Card Slot n→Daughter Card Slot n→Port n/n/n.
2	Right-click on the required Ethernet port icon and choose Properties. The Physical Port (Edit) form opens.
3	Click on the Ethernet tab.
4	Perform one of the following: Click on the Network Egress Queue Group tab. Click on the Access Ingress Queue Group tab. Click on the Access Egress Queue Group tab. Note: The Network Egress Queue Group tab is available if queue groups are supported on the port, depending on the NE release and IOM type. See Port queue groups in Chapter 71, Queue groups for more information about supported devices and IOM types.
5	Click Create. The Queue Group (Create) form opens.
6	Select a queue group template policy.
7	Configure the required parameters.
8	If you are adding a network egress queue group, go to Step 9 . Otherwise, continue to Step 10.
9	Select a policer control policy.
10	Select an accounting policy. Note: Only the accounting policies with the Type parameter configured to one of the following options are listed: Queue Group Octets Queue Group Packets Combined Queue Group
11	Configure the Collect Accounting Statistics parameter, if required.
12	Select a scheduler policy.
13	If you are adding an access ingress queue group, go to Step 20 . Otherwise, continue to Step 14 .
14	Configure the required parameters. The Aggregate Rate Limit (kbps) and Frame-Based Accounting parameters are configurable only if you did not select a scheduler policy. The Frame-Based Accounting parameter is configurable only if you configure the Aggregate Rate Limit (kbps) parameter.
15	If you are adding a network egress queue group (including queue groups for HSMDA), go to Step 20 . Otherwise, continue to Step 16 .
16	Click on the Host Matching tab. Note: The Host Matching tab is available only if the Instance ID is set to 1.
17	Click Create. The Host String (Create) form opens.
18	Configure the Host String parameter.
19	Click OK. The Host String (Create) form closes and the information on the Host Matching tab is updated.
20	Click on the Overrides: Type Queue tab, where Type will be Network Egress, Access Egress, or Access Ingress, depending on your selection in Step 4 .
21	Click Create. The Queue Override (Create) form opens.
22	Select a Queue ID.
23	Click on the Override tab.
24	If you are configuring an access egress queue group queue override for HSMDA, then go to Step 28 .
25	Configure the required override parameters. The Weight and CIR Weight parameters are only applicable to access egress queue group overrides. The parameters are configurable when the Override check box is enabled.
26	In the Stats panel, configure queue depth monitoring. For more information, see Queue depth monitoring.
27	Go to Step 30 .
28	Configure the required parameters. The parameters are configurable when the associated Override check box is enabled.
29	If you need to configure an override for a Slope Policy, enable the associated Override check box and select a slope policy.
30	Save your changes and close the forms. End of steps
