You can configure the traffic shaping function.
Context
When the rate of an interface on a downstream device is smaller than the rate of an interface on an upstream device or the burst traffic occurs, traffic congestion may occur on the interface of the downstream device. In this case, you can configure traffic shaping on the interface of the upstream device in the outbound direction so that traffic is sent at an even rate and the congestion problem of the downstream device is solved.
Procedure
- Choose in the navigation tree to open the Configure Traffic Shaping page
Table 1 describes the parameters on the Configure Traffic Shaping page.
Table 1 Configure Traffic Shaping Parameter
Description
Select Interface
Indicates the interface where traffic shaping needs to be configured. You can select multiple interfaces.
Queues
Indicates the queue.
NOTE:The S2700EI switches only support 0 to 3 queues.
CIR
Indicates the CIR.
PIR
Indicates the PIR of an interface. The default value is the bandwidth of the interface and the value cannot be smaller than the value of the CIR.
NOTE:The S2700EI switches do not support PIR.CBS
Indicates the committed burst size.
NOTE:Only S2700EI series switches support CBS. - Select the interfaces that you want to configure.
- Select the queue that you want to configure and set the values of CIR, PIR, and CBS.
NOTE: If you do not select the queue, the configurations of the queue are deleted.
- Click Apply to complete the configuration.
