Abstract
In one embodiment, a system comprises an interface to receive a plurality of packets; and a plurality of processor units to execute a plurality of transmission sub-interfaces, each transmission sub-interface to perform hierarchical quality of service (HQoS) scheduling on a distinct subset of the plurality of packets, wherein each transmission sub-interface is to schedule its subset of the plurality of packets for transmission by a network interface controller by assigning the packets of the subset to a plurality of transmission queues that each correspond to a distinct traffic class.
