Fair-queue


  • Effective with Cisco IOS XE Release 2.6, Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)S, and Cisco IOS Release 15.1(3)T, the fair-queuecommand is hidden in interface configuration mode.
  • To enable weighted fair queueing (WFQ), use the fair-queue command in interface configuration or policy-map class configuration mode.

  • congestive-discard-threshold: 
      • (Optional) Number of messages allowed in each queue.
      • When a conversation reaches this threshold, new message packets are discarded.
      • If you have hierarchical queueing framework (HQF) configured, then the values are 16 to 4096.
  • dynamic-queues :
      • (Optional) Number of dynamic queues used for best-effort   conversations (that is, a normal conversation not requiring any special network services).
  • reservable-queues 
      • (Optional) Number of reservable queues used for reserved conversations in the range 0 to 1000. The default is 0.
      • Reservable queues are used for interfaces configured for features such as Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP).

  • Fair queueing is supported for all LAN and line (WAN) protocols except X.25, including LAPB and SDLC
  • Because tunnels are software interfaces that are themselves routed over physical interfaces, fair queueing is not supported for tunnels. 
  • Fair queueing is on by default for interfaces with bandwidth less than or equal to 2 Mbps.
  • IP Precedence, congestion in Frame Relay switching, and discard eligible (DE) flags affect the weights used for queueing.
