Applying a WRED Profile to Traffic
After you create a WRED profile, you must specify to which traffic Dell Networking OS should apply the
profile.
Dell Networking OS assigns a color (also called drop precedence) — red, yellow, or green — to each
packet based on it DSCP value before queuing it.
DSCP is a 6–bit field. Dell Networking uses the first three bits (LSB) of this field (DP) to determine the drop
precedence.
• DP values of 110 and 100, 101 map to yellow; all other values map to green.
• If you do not configure Dell Networking OS to honor DSCP values on ingress (refer to Honoring DSCP
Values on Ingress Packets), all traffic defaults to green drop precedence.
• Assign a WRED profile to either yellow or green traffic.

Pre-Calculating Available QoS CAM Space
Pre-calculating available QoS CAM space is supported on the S6000 platform.
Before Dell Networking OS version 7.3.1, there was no way to measure the number of CAM entries a
policy-map would consume (the number of CAM entries that a rule uses is not predictable; from 1 to 16
entries might be used per rule depending upon its complexity). Therefore, it was possible to apply to an
interface a policy-map that requires more entries than are available. In this case, the system writes as
many entries as possible, and then generates an CAM-full error message (shown in the following
example). The partial policy-map configuration might cause unintentional system behavior.
%EX2YD:12 %DIFFSERV-2-DSA_QOS_CAM_INSTALL_FAILED: Not enough space in L3
Cam(PolicyQos) for class 2 (TeGi 12/20) entries on portpipe 1
The test cam-usage command allows you to verify that there are enough available CAM entries before
applying a policy-map to an interface so that you avoid exceeding the QoS CAM space and partial
configurations. This command measures the size of the specified policy-map and compares it to the
available CAM space in a partition for a specified port-pipe.
