Port Status and Basic Configuration
Configuring Port-Based Priority for Incoming Packets
Outbound Port Queues and Packet Priority Settings
Ports on the ProCurve switches have the following outbound port queue
structure:
As shown below, these port queues map to the eight priority settings specified
in the 802.1p standard.
Table 10-3. Mapping Priority Settings to Outbound Port Queues
For example, suppose you have configured port 10 to assign a priority level
of 1 (low):
■ An untagged packet coming into the switch on port 10 and leaving the
switch through any other port configured as a tagged VLAN member
would leave the switch as a tagged packet with a priority level of 1.
