Packets that have a priority of 4 to 7 in either the DSCP or a VLAN 802.1p tag are automatically sent
on the high-priority channel, but only where the high-priority channel is enabled.
Setting the Configuration Source
The AP includes a Configuration Source parameter, which sets where SMs that register to the AP are
controlled for MIR, VLAN, and the high-priority channel as follows. The Configuration Source
parameter affects the source of:
all MIR settings:
o Sustained Uplink Data Rate
o Uplink Burst Allocation
o Sustained Downlink Data Rate
o Downlink Burst Allocation
all SM VLAN settings
o Dynamic Learning
o Allow Only Tagged Frames
o VLAN Aging Timeout
o Untagged Ingress VID
o Management VID
o VLAN Membership
the Hi Priority Channel setting
