Release Information
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 13.2.
Description
Configure the maximum number of queues allowed per MPC1 Q, MPC2 Q, and MPC2 EQ line card in an MX240, MX480, MX960, MX2010, or MX2020 router or per 2-port or 4-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet fixed MIC with XFP in an MX5, MX10, MX40, or MX80 modular chassis router.
Reducing the number of queues allowed in a hierarchical scheduling environment in turn reduces the degree of jitter in the queues.
Options
queues-per-line-card | — | Maximum number of queues allowed for the line card. Only the following keywords are valid: 8k, 16k, 32k, 64k, 128k, or 256k.
If you configure a keyword for a value that exceeds the number of queues supported by the line card hardware, the system uses the maximum number of queues supported by the line card. |
