Safety Considerations

Prior to the installation and use of this product,
review all safety markings and instructions.

Instruction Manual Symbol.

If the product is marked with the above symbol, refer
to the product manual to protect the product from
damage.

WARNING Denotes a hazard that can cause injury.

CAUTION Denotes a hazard that can damage

equipment or data.

Do not proceed beyond a WARNING or CAUTION
notice until you have understood the hazard and

Grounding

This product provides a protective earthing terminal.
There must be an uninterrupted safety earth ground

from the main power source to the product’s input
wiring terminals, power cord or supplied power cord
set. Whenever it is likely that the protection has
been impaired, disconnect the power cord until the
ground has been restored.

If your LAN covers an area served by more than one
power distribution system, be sure their safety
grounds are securely interconnected.

LAN cables may occasionally be subject to
hazardous transient voltages (such as lightning or
disturbances in the electrical utilities power grid).
Handle exposed metal components of the network
with caution.

For more safety information, see “Safety and EMS
Regulatory Statements” in the Installation and
Getting Started Guide.

Servicing

There are no user-serviceable parts inside the user­installable modules comprising the product. Any
servicing, adjustment, maintenance or repair must
be performed only by service-trained personnel.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Software release 06.6.X provides the following enhancements to QoS on the HP 9304M, HP 9308M, and HP
6208M-SX routing switches.

• You can choose between a strict queuing method and a weighted queuing method.

• You can modify the minimum guaranteed percentage of bandwidth for each queue.

• You can apply a QoS profile (one of the four queues) to 802.1q tagged VLAN packets.

• You can display the percentage of an uplink’s bandwidth that each of a given set of ports uses. This is

especially useful in environments where collocated customers on different, isolated ports share common
uplink ports.

These new features add flexibility to the QoS features in earlier software releases but do not replace them.

The Queues

HP 9304M, HP 9308M, and HP 6208M-SX routing switches use the following queues:

• qosp3 – The highest priority queue. This queue corresponds to 802.1p prioritization levels 6 and 7 and HP
priority levels 6 and 7.

• qosp2 – The second-highest priority queue. This queue corresponds to 802.1p prioritization levels 4 and 5
and HP priority levels 4 and 5.

• qosp1 – The third-highest priority queue. This queue corresponds to 802.1p prioritization levels 2 and 3 and
HP priority levels 2 and 3.

• qosp0 – The lowest priority queue. This queue corresponds to 802.1p prioritization levels 0 and 1 and HP
priority levels 0 and 1.

The queue names listed above are the default names. You can rename the queues if you want, as described in
“Renaming the Queues” on page 2-4”.

Advanced Configuration and Management Guide

• You can classify packets and assign them to specific queues based on the following criteria:

• Incoming port (sometimes called ingress port)

• IP source and destination addresses

• Layer 4 source and destination information (for all IP addresses or specific IP addresses)

• Static MAC entry

• AppleTalk socket number

• Layer 2 port-based VLAN membership

• 802.1q tag

By default, all the traffic types listed above except the 802.1q tagged packets are in the best effort queue, which is
the lowest priority queue. The 802.1q tagged packets are assigned to a queue based on the priority level (0 – 7)
in the packet’s tag. The default mapping of the priority levels to the queues is as follows.

Priority Level Queue

6, 7 qosp3

4, 5 qosp2

2, 3 qosp1

0, 1 qosp0

In cases where a packet matches more than one traffic type, the highest queue level among the traffic type is
used. For example, if a tagged packet arrives on a tagged port and the 802.1p priority is 4 (qosp2) but the packet
contains IP source and destination information that matches an IP access policy configured to assign the traffic to
priority 7 (qosp3), the device places the packet in qosp3 of the outbound port.

Automatic Queue Mapping for IP Type Of Service (TOS) Values

HP devices that support QoS automatically examine the first two bits in the Type of Service (TOS) header in each
IP packet as it enters the device on a 10/100 port. The device then places the packet in the QoS queue that
corresponds to the TOS value.

The TOS value in the first two bits can be one of the following.

TOS value (binary) Queue

11 qosp3

10 qosp2

01 qosp1

00 qosp0

As the packet moves through the system, if the packet matches other QoS allocations you have configured, the
packet is moved into a higher queue accordingly. For example, if the TOS values place the packet in qosp1, but
the packet is part of a port-based VLAN that is in qosp3, the packet enters queue qosp3. Packets can enter
higher queues but never enter lower queues as they move through the system.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Queuing Methods

In software release 06.6.X and higher, you can configure the device to use one of the following queuing methods:

• Weighted – A weighted fair queuing algorithm is used to rotate service among the four queues. The rotation
is based on the weights you assign to each queue. This is the default queuing method and uses a default set
of queue weights. This method rotates service among the four queues, forwarding a specific number of
packets in one queue before moving on to the next one.

The number of packets serviced during each visit to a queue depends on the percentages you configure for
the queues. The software automatically converts the percentages you specify into weights for the queues.

• Strict – The software assigns the maximum weights to each queue, to cause the queuing mechanism to serve
as many packets in one queue as possible before moving to a lower queue. This method biases the queuing
mechanism to favor the higher queues over the lower queues. For example, strict queuing processes as
many packets as possible in qosp3 before processing any packets in qosp2, then processes as many
packets as possible in qosp2 before processing any packets in qosp1, and so on.

Selecting the Queuing Method

The HP 9304M, HP 9308M, and HP 6208M-SX routing switches and the HP 6208M-SX switch use the weighted
fair queuing method of packet prioritization by default. To change the method to strict queuing or back to weighted
fair queuing, use one of the following methods.

USING THE CLI

To change the queuing method from weighted fair queuing to strict queuing, enter the following commands:

HP9300(config)# qos mechanism strict
HP9300(config)# write memory

Syntax: [no] qos mechanism strict | weighted

To change the method back to weighted fair queuing, enter the following commands:

HP9300(config)# qos mechanism weighted
HP9300(config)# write memory

USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE

1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
dialog is displayed.

2. Click on the Weighted or Strict radio button next to QoS.

3. Click the Apply button to save the change to the device’s running-config file.

4. Select the Save
change to the startup-config file on the device’s flash memory.

Advanced Configuration and Management Guide

Configuring the Queues

Each of the four queues has the following configurable parameters:

• The queue name

• The minimum percentage of a port’s outbound bandwidth guaranteed to the queue.

Renaming the Queues

The default queue names are qosp3, qosp2, qosp1, and qosp0. You can change one or more of the names if
desired. To do so, use one of the following methods.

USING THE CLI

To rename queue qosp3 (the premium queue) to “92-octane”, enter the following commands:

HP9300(config)# qos name qosp3 92-octane
HP9300(config)# write memory

Syntax: qos name <old-name> <new-name>

The <old-name> parameter specifies the name of the queue before the change.

The <new-name> parameter specifies the new name of the queue. You can specify an alphanumeric string up to
32 characters long.

USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE

1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
dialog is displayed.

2. Click on the plus sign next to Configure in the tree view to expand the list of configuration options.

3. Click on the plus sign next to QoS in the tree view to expand the list of QoS option links.

4. Click on the Profile

5. Edit the strings name the Name fields for the queue(s) you want to rename. In this example, the premium
queue is renamed from “qosp3” to “92-octane”.

6. Click the Apply button to save the change to the device’s running-config file.

7. Select the Save
change to the startup-config file on the device’s flash memory.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Changing the Minimum Bandwidth Percentages of the Queues

If you are using the weighted fair queuing mechanism instead of the strict mechanism, you can change the
weights for each queue by changing the minimum percentage of bandwidth you want each queue to guarantee for
its traffic.

By default, the four QoS queues receive the following minimum guaranteed percentages of a port’s total
bandwidth.

Queue Default Minimum Percentage of Bandwidth

qosp3 80%

qosp2 15%

qosp1 3.3%

qosp0 1.7%

NOTE: The percentages are guaranteed minimum bandwidth percentages. Thus, they apply when a port is fully
utilized. When a port is not fully utilized, it is possible for queues to receive more than the configured percentage
of bandwidth. You cannot specify a maximum bandwidth percentage for a queue. Any queue can get more than
its committed share when other queues are idle.

When the queuing method is weighted fair queuing, the software internally translates the percentages into
weights. The weight associated with each queue controls how many packets are processed for the queue at a
given stage of a cycle through the weighted fair queuing algorithm.

For example, the default percentages shown above translate into the following weights.

Queue Default Minimum Percentage

of Bandwidth

qosp3 80% 4

qosp2 15% 3

qosp1 3.3% 2

qosp0 1.7% 1

A queue’s weight specifies how many packets are sent from the queue each time the queue is serviced. Thus,
when the default bandwidth percentages are used, four packets are sent from queue qosp3 each time the queue
is serviced, while three packets are sent from queue qosp2 each time it is serviced, and so on. The queuing
mechanism interleaves the queues during the cycle so that queue qosp3 is serviced after each visit to any other
queue. For example, using the default percentages (and thus the default weights), queue qosp3 receives 12 visits
for every one visit to queue qosp0.
