Lockless QoS —In Lockless QoS mode, the firewall supports both QoS and
non-QoS traffics, where the Lockless QoS shapes the QoS traffic. The
firewall shapes the packets from the same interface (or port) by the same
core for achieving Lockless QoS. For firewalls with higher bandwidth QoS
requirements, the Lockless QoS dedicates CPU cores to the QoS function that
improves QoS performance, resulting in improved throughput and latency.
In Lockless QoS mode, as the members in a LAG have to be mapped to
the same core, the overall LAG QoS throughput is limited by the per core
throughput.
We support Lockless QoS mode on the following firewall models.
Regardless of the type of QoS configured, the maximum bandwidth (maximum
rate of transfer) you can allocate at the port level and QoS profile
level for the following platforms is 10G.
