CLI – The following example shows how to assign WRR weights of 1, 4,
16 and 64 to the CoS priority queues 0, 1, 2 and 3.
Mapping Layer 3/4 Priorities to CoS Values
This switch supports a common method of prioritizing layer 3/4 traffic to
meet application requirements. Traffic priorities can be specified in the IP
header of a frame, using the priority bits in the Type of Service (ToS) octet.
The ToS octet may contain three bits for IP Precedence or six bits for
Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) service. When these services
are enabled, the priorities are mapped to a Class of Service value by the
switch, and the traffic then sent to the corresponding output queue.
Because different priority information may be contained in the traffic, this
switch maps priority values to the output queues in the following manner:
The precedence for priority mapping is IP Precedence or DSCP
Priority and then Default Port Priority.
IP Precedence and DSCP Priority cannot both be enabled. Enabling
one of these priority types will automatically disable the other.
IP Precedence and DSCP Priority settings are global and apply to all
ports on the switch.
Selecting IP Precedence/DSCP Priority
The switch allows you to choose between using IP Precedence or DSCP
priority. Select one of the methods or disable this feature.
