<P>Hi Micheale:</P>
<P>How do we caculate this precedence value. Does it base on predefined TCP por

<P>Is there any formula on caculating this precedence value.<BR><BR></P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Correct. WFQ uses the formula: Weight = 4096/(Precedence+1). As
such,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;all packets with a given IP Precedence (regardless of which conv
ersation
<DIV></DIV>&gt;they belong to, are weighted equally.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Probably better if I used the term 'weighting' - in WFQ, w
eighting is only
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; based on IP precedence (and of course interactive traffic)
....
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; In CBWFQ, you have greater control of the weighting by ass
igning bandwidth
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; to anything that can be classified with an ACL (i.e. all '
conversations'
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; that fit the ACL)

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Not true, Justin. CBWFQ allows you to perform QoS per clas
s, not per
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; conversation. That is its fundamental difference. With WFQ
, packets are
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; classified into "conversations" by a mixture of things, in
cluding port and
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; prtocol numbers.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; CBWFQ is essentially WFQ except you can classify pack

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; Hi,
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; Is it possible to assigne priority to WFQ? I mean tha
t can I assigne =
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; traffic like ftp or telnet to WFQ with different prio
rity just like in =
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; priority queuing?
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; The problem is that I dont understand how WFQ works.
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; Thanks
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; Dezs
