Quality of Service
VSE SmartConnect software supports two types of Quality of Service (QoS) classifications:
“IEEE 8021p for MAC-Level QoS” on page 112
“DiffServ Code Point QoS” on page 113
IEEE 8021p for MAC-Level QoS
VSE SmartConnect software supports the following configuration windows for IEEE 802.1p
QoS classifications:
“Priority CoS Configuration Table” on page 112
“CoS Weight Configuration Table” on page 112
“Port Priority Configuration” on page 112
“Number of Cos Configuration” on page 112
Priority CoS Configuration Table
Use this window to map 802.1 priority to Class of Service queues (CoSq). For each 802.1p pri-
ority value (0-7), select a corresponding CoSq number.
CoS Weight Configuration Table
Use this window to configure the scheduling weight for each CoSq.
Port Priority Configuration
Use this window to configure the 802.1 priority for each switch port.
Number of Cos Configuration
Use this window to configure the number of Class of Service (CoS) queues available for use.
Note – If you change the number of CoS queues, you must Save the configuration and reset
the switch for the change to take affect.
