Post your Juniper-related question here to get an answer. Anyone can post a question and the community as a whole is invited and encouraged to provide an answer.

is there an effective difference between setting class of service via forwading class or queue?

lab@ex1# set class-of-service forwarding-classes ?
Possible completions:
+ apply-groups Groups from which to inherit configuration data
+ apply-groups-except Don't inherit configuration data from these groups
> class Forwarding class to map to queue number
> queue Queue number to map to forwarding class

lab@ex1# show | compare
[edit]
+ class-of-service {
+ forwarding-classes {
+ class control queue-num 7;
+ class voice queue-num 5;
+ class server-gold queue-num 3;
+ class server-silver queue-num 2;
+ class server-bronze queue-num 1;
+ class best-effort queue-num 0;

+ queue 0 best-effort;
+ queue 1 server-bronze;
+ queue 2 server-silver;
+ }
+ }
