HIERARCHY TREE-BASED QUALITY OF SERVICE CLASSIFICATION FOR PACKET PROCESSING

摘要

In one embodiment, a method comprises receiving a packet of a number of packets for storage into an egress port. The egress port has a number of queues associated with nodes of a hierarchy tree. The hierarchy tree has a level of nodes associated with contexts for the number of packets. The method also includes storing the packet into a queue of the number of queues of the egress port based the associated node within the hierarchy tree.
