Chapter 9  QoS 
QoS (Quality of Service) functions to provide different quality of service for various network 
applications and requirements and optimize the bandwidth resource distribution so as to provide a 
network service experience of a better quality. 
  QoS  
This switch classifies the ingress packets, maps the packets to different priority queues and then 
forwards the packets according to specified scheduling algorithms to implement QoS function.   
 
Figure 9-1 QoS function 
  Traffic classification: Identifies packets conforming to certain characters according to certain 
rules.  
  Map: The user can map the ingress packets to different priority queues based on the priority 
modes. This switch implements three priority modes based on port, on 802.1P and on DSCP.   
  Queue scheduling algorithm: When the network is congested, the problem that many packets 
compete for resources must be solved, usually in the way of queue scheduling. The switch 
supports four schedule modes: SP, WRR, SP+WRR and Equ.   
  Priority Mode 
This switch implements three priority modes based on port, on 802.1P and on DSCP. By default, the 
priority mode based on port is enabled and the other two modes are optional.   
1. Port 
Priority  
Port priority is just a property of the port. After port priority is configured, the data stream will be 
mapped to the egress queues according to the CoS of the port and the mapping relationship 
between CoS and queues.
