Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems and methods for a tiered scheme of quality of service settings for ports of a network switch based at least on a performance metric of a storage pool of a software defined storage (SDS) appliance. In one particular embodiment, a network switch associated with one or more storage appliances may be configured to apply the networking tiered scheme to the ports of the network switch. The tiered scheme may be associated with a storage tier assigned or associated with a storage pool of the SDS system. Thus, a networking tier may be provided to one or more ports or networking components of the network if those ports or components are associated with the storage tier. The particular networking tier associated with a port or component may determine one or more quality of service settings applied to the port or component.
