levels. The following table describes the QoS Configuration Menu options.

QoS 802.1p configuration
Command: /cfg/qos/8021p
[802.1p Menu]
priq - Set priority to COS queue mapping
qweight - Set weight to a COS queue
numcos - Set number of COS queue
default - Reset 802.1p configuration to default values.
cur - Display current 802.1p configuration
This feature provides the HP 10GbE switch the capability to filter IP packets based on the IEEE
802.1p bits in the packet's VLAN header. The 802.1p bits specify the priority that you should give to
the packets while forwarding them. The packets with a higher (non-zero) priority bits are given
forwarding preference over packets with numerically lower priority bits value.
The following table describes the 802.1p Configuration Menu options.
