RED cannot be applied to queue 6 and 7.
Through different RED configuration for the queues (

The WRED Configuration
Parameter description:
Queue :
The queue number (QoS class) for which the configuration below applies.
Enable :
Evoke to enable or disable the WRED function on the switch QoS Queue.
Min. Threshold :
Controls the lower RED threshold. If the average queue filling level is below this threshold,
the drop probability is zero. This value is restricted to 0-100.
Max. DP1 :
Controls the drop probability for frames marked with Drop Precedence Level 1 when the
average queue filling level is 100%. This value is restricted to 0-100.
Max. DP2 :
Controls the drop probability for frames marked with Drop Precedence Level 2 when the
average queue filling level is 100%. This value is restricted to 0-100.
