This is a good comparison point between the 3550's and the 3560's. On the 3550's you can have different buffer/threshold parameters per port.

*****

Ex. On 3550:

        interface X/Y
         wrr-queue queue-limit 40 30 20 10

        - The above assigns 40% of the buffer space to queue 1, 30% to queue 2, 20% for queue 3, and 10% for queue 4 for that interface. Each interface can be configured independently.

******

Ex on 3560:

        mls qos queue-set output 1 buffers 40 30 20 10

        - The above assigns 40% of the buffer space to queue 1, 30% to queue 2, 20% for queue 3, and 10% for queue 4. Then you apply this to an interface.

        interface X/Y
         queue-set 1

        - As a result this maps the defined queue-set to this port. In other words, you can only have two different sets of queues for each port (each port is either in queue 1 or queue 2. You are not able to have different buffer/threshold settings for each individual port. Now, for bandwidth on egress, that still is done on a port by port basis.

*****

Keep in mind, the normal comment that queue 4 of the 3550 is the priority queue, where queue 1 is the priority queue of the 3560. The queue-set concept applies only to the 3560 and applies to both buffers and thresholds. See slide 42 here for a comparison of WRR vs. SRR.

Hi

As far as I can remember you can set different for queue set 1 and queue set 2.
This means that by assigning queue set 1 to an interface x and queue set 2 to interface y, they have different SRR parameters (buffers etc), so more flexible.
