To configure a port scheduler policy

Steps
 
1 

Choose Policies→QoS→SROS QoS→Scheduler→Port Scheduler from the NFM-P main menu. The Port Scheduler Policies form opens.

2 

Click Create or choose a policy and click Properties. The Port Scheduler (Create|Edit) form opens.

3 

Configure the required parameters.

The Maximum Rate parameter is configurable when the MAX check box is deselected.

When the HQoS Algorithm parameter is set to the Above Offered Allowance Control option, the policy uses values configured in an Advanced Configuration policy; see To configure an Advanced Configuration policy. The required Advanced Configuration policy must be distributed to the NE along with the Port Scheduler policy.

4 

Click on the Group tab and click Create. The Port Scheduler Group (Create) form opens.

5 

Configure the required parameters.

If you set the Rate Type parameter to kbps, the PIR (kbps) and CIR (kbps) parameters are configurable when the associated MAX check box is deselected.

6 

Save your changes.

7 

Click on the Level tab on the Port Scheduler (Create) form to configure the required levels.

Note: Contiguous mapping of levels to a group is enforced. Priority levels cannot be added to a group unless the resulting set of priority levels is contiguous. When a level is not explicitly mapped to any group, it maps directly to the root of the port scheduler at its own priority.

8 

Associate a port scheduler group to a level:

  1. Click Select in the Level panels to choose a port scheduler group from the list in the Select Group form. The port scheduler group must be preexisting on the port scheduler policy (as created in Step 4 to Step 6).

  2. Configure the Weight in group parameter as required.

9 

Configure the Rate Type, PIR, and CIR parameters for each level required.

The PIR and CIR parameters are configurable when the associated MAX check box is deselected.

10 

Configure the required parameters in the Orphan panel.

11 

Click OK to save the policy and close the form, or click Apply to save the policy. See To release and distribute a policy to distribute the policy to NEs.
