qos mechanism

Configures the Quality of Service (QoS) queuing method.
Syntax
qos mechanism { strict | weighted | mixed-sp-wrr }
no qos mechanism { strict | weighted | mixed-sp-wrr }
Command Default

By default, devices use the Weighted Round Robin (WRR) method of packet prioritization. WRR ensures that all queues are serviced during each cycle

Parameters
strict
Changes the method to strict order scheduling (Strict Priority (SP)).
weighted
Changes the method to weighted scheduling (WRR).
mixed-sp-wrr
Changes the method to both strict scheduling and weighted scheduling.
Modes

Global configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

By default, when you select the combined Strict Priority (SP) and WRR queueing method, the device assigns strict priority to traffic in qosp6 and qosp7 and weighted round robin priority to traffic in qosp0 through qosp5.

The no form of the command configures the device to use the WRR method of packet prioritization.

Examples

The following example shows changes the method to strict priority scheduling. 

device(config)# qos mechanism strict
