Configuring interface queue shaper

The following sections describe the Interface queue shaper.

Interface queue shaper navigation

Viewing QoS interface queue shaper information

Use this procedure to view QoS interface queue shaper information.

Procedure steps

  1. From the navigation tree, double-click QoS.

  2. In the QoS tree, double-click QoS .

  3. In the work area, click the Interface Queue Shaper tab.

Variable definitions

Use the data in the following table to help you understand QoS interface queue shaper information.

Table 1. Interface Queue Shaper parameters
Variable Value
Port Indicates the interface port number associated with a QoS interface shaper. The port number must correspond to the interface table entry with the same port number.
Queue Indicates the queue for the selected interface port or ports, on which traffic is shaped. The range of available values is determined by the OoS agent default queue configuration.
Name Indicates an alphanumeric label used to identify the QoS interface queue shaper.
ShapingRate Indicates the QoS interface queue shaping rate, in kilobits per second (Kbps). Values range from 0 to10230000 Kbps. The values must be a multiple of 64 or 1000 Kbps.
ShapingMinRate Indicates the minimum QoS interface queue shaping rate, in kilobits per second (Kbps). Values range from 0 to10230000 Kbps. The value must be a multiple of 64 or 1000 Kbps.
