Package svq
The XML API OSS interface uses the svq package to configure scheduler
policies. Scheduler policies determine the order in which queues are serviced. All
ingress and egress queues operate within the context of a scheduler. Multiple queues
share the same scheduler. Schedulers control the data transfer between the following
queues and destinations:
- service ingress queues to switch fabric destinations
- service egress queues to access egress ports
- network ingress queues to switch fabric destinations
- network egress queues to network egress interfaces
The scheduler policies are:
- single tier, in which queues are scheduled based on the forwarding class of the
queue and the operational state of the queue relative to the queue CIR and PIR
- hierarchical or multi-tier, which allow the creation of a hierarchy of schedules
where queues or other schedulers are scheduled by superior schedulers
