Configuring Implicit Constituents for Simple or Compound Shared Shaping
There are two types of implicit constituents:
- Simple implicit—Constituents are best-effort node or queues, and all nodes and queues in named traffic-class groups.
- Compound implicit—Constituents are selected automatically by the software. If a node exists in a given traffic-class group, the node is active and the queues stacked above it are inactive constituents.
Before you configure implicit constituents:
- Configure the traffic classes and traffic-class groups.
See Configuring Traffic Classes That Define Service Levels and Configuring Traffic-Class Groups That Define Service Levels.
To configure implicit constituents:
- Create the scheduler profile.
- host1(config)#scheduler-profile implicit
- Configure the shared shaper.
To configure a simple shared shaper:
- host1(config-scheduler-profile)#shared-shaping-rate 128000 bps
To configure a compound shared shaper:
- host1(config-scheduler-profile)#shared-shaping-rate 128000 burst 32767 compound
- (Optional) For compound shared shapers, specify the attributes
for the constituent.
- host1(config-scheduler-profile)#shared-shaping-constituent weight 28
Including this command does not affect how the system selects the compound implicit constituent. If the command is present for a constituent that was implicitly selected, the software configures that constituent using the strict-priority or weight attributes.
After you configure implicit constituents:
- Configure the scheduler hierarchy with the best-effort nodes and queues.
