Forwarding Class

Names of forwarding classes assigned to queue numbers. By default, the following forwarding classes are assigned to queues 0, 1, 5, or 7:

  • best-effort—Provides no special CoS handling of packets. Loss priority is typically not carried in a CoS value.
  • expedited-forwarding—Provides low loss, low delay, low jitter, assured bandwidth, and end-to-end service.
  • assured-forwarding—Provides high assurance for packets within specified service profile. Excess packets are dropped.
  • network-control—Packets can be delayed but not dropped.
 

Queue

By default, four queues, 0, 1, 5 or 7, are assigned to forwarding classes.
