Hi, Am I wrong or the CBWFQ does allow you to strict priority a traffic class using the keyword 'priority' ?

Keep in mind the "evolution" of queuing mechanisms: after WFQ came CBWFQ and PQ simultaneously (I think - someone correct my history if I'm mistaken). PQ is *too* strict, and not granular enough. CBWFQ is too loose, and cannot guarantee that a certain type of traffic will *always* get through. Enter IP RTP Priority, which states that RTP packets (usually voice) will *always* go through, and any other traffic type will be handled in a WFQ fashion. LLQ opens up the possibility of giving priority to other traffic types (not necessarily voice traffic), and then handling everything else in a bandwidth-based WFQ fashion. > (2) is it once again, a case of one queue > having a higher weight which means > more data gets sent, (but not all data), at > each pass. This is pure CBWFQ that you're describing here.
