Example: Defining Different Drop Behavior for Each Traffic Class for WRED

You can define different dropping behaviors for each traffic class in the router. By doing so, you can assign less aggressive drop profiles to higher-priority queues and more aggressive drop profiles to lower-priority queues. Figure 6 shows an example that classifies packets into one of four traffic classes. Each traffic class has a different queuing behavior, drop treatment, and scheduler treatment.
