Re: Question about QoS on C3750

The 3560s use Sasquatch strictly for egress queueing which have 2MB of
buffer each. You have 8192 buffer units, 256 Bytes each, and you also have
three pools and they are:

Supervisor, Common Pool and reserved pool (Which are configurable).

The big question is how these pools are configured and how many buffer units
are allocated to these pools?
560 Units for Supervisor which equates to 140KB. And if you subtract this
value from 8192, the remainder is divided between 24 (A 24 Port Box) X 4
(Queues per port).

I hope this helped.
