ABSTRACT:
A data communication apparatus includes a plurality of output ports and a scheduler for assigning priorities for outbound data frames. The scheduler includes one or more scheduling queues. Each scheduling queue indicates an order in which data flows are to be serviced. At least one scheduling queue has a respective plurality of output ports assigned to the scheduling queue. That is, the scheduling queue is shared by two or more output ports.
