Usage Guidelines for the weight Command

On the PRE2, for the weight command to be fully effective, use the queue-depth command to set the
segmentation and reassembly (SAR) line card queue depth for each VC interface queue above the VC
weight.

High Watermark and Low Watermark Default Values

On ATM line cards, the SAR mechanism has a queue for each PVC. Each PVC queue has two thresholds
associated with it called the high watermark and low watermark. These watermarks define the number
of cells the queue can hold.
The high and low watermark settings define the depth of the PVC interface queue on the line card.

The behavior of the high watermark threshold and the low watermark threshold depends on whether the
atm pxf queuing mode or the no atm pxf queuing mode is configured. In atm pxf queuing mode, the high
watermark is a threshold that triggers a flow-off signal and the low watermark is a threshold that triggers
a flow-on signal. The high watermark is the maximum number of cells that can be in the PVC queue for
the ATM SAR mechanism before a flow-off signal is sent to the PXF. With the exception of priority
