Configuring the Switch
3-98
The priority levels recommended in the IEEE 802.1p standard for various network
applications are shown in the following table. However, you can map the priority
levels to the switch’s output queues in any way that benefits application traffic for
your own network.
Command Attributes
Priority – CoS value. (Range: 0-7, where 7 is the highest priority)
Traffic Class* – Output queue buffer. (Range: 0-3, where 3 is the highest CoS
priority queue)
* CLI shows Queue ID
Web – Click Priority, Traffic Classes. Mark an interface and click Select to display
the current mapping of CoS values to output queues. Assign priorities to the traffic
classes (i.e., output queues) for the selected interface, then click Apply.
