Chapter 4 - Operation and Administration

„Before transmitting the frames to the Ethernet port, the Service Provider VLAN ID tag is removed.

The Service Provider VLAN ID affects frames received from the Ethernet link port, as follows: A Service Provider tag, that includes the configured Service Provider VLAN ID (and the VLAN QinQ Ethertype) is inserted in all frames, both tagged and untagged, before transmission to the wireless link.

4.2.6.4.1.7 VLAN Traffic Priority

The VLAN Traffic Priority menu enables configuring the VLAN Priority field in applicable frames. These parameters only impact the way in which other VLAN aware devices in the network will handle the packet. All parameters that affect prioritization within the BreezeACCES VL system, including VLAN-based prioritization, are located in the Traffic Prioritization menu.

The VLAN Traffic Priority menu includes the following parameters:

„VLAN Priority – Data (SU only)

„VLAN Priority – Management

4.2.6.4.1.7.1VLAN Priority - Data (SU only)

The VLAN Priority - Data is applicable for Access Links only. It enables configuring the value of the VLAN Priority field for data frames transmitted to the wireless link. All data frames are routed to the Low queue. This parameter only impacts the way other VLAN aware devices handle the packet.

Valid values range from 0 to 7.

The default value is 0.

4.2.6.4.1.7.2VLAN Priority - Management

The VLAN Priority - Management enables defining the value of the VLAN Priority field for management frames in units with VLAN ID-Management that is other than 65535. All management frames are routed to the High queue. This parameter only impacts the way other VLAN aware devices handle the packet.

Valid values range from 0 to 7.

The default value is 4 for SUs and 0 for AUs.

4.2.6.4.1.8 VLAN QinQ Protocol Ethertype

The VLAN QinQ Proptocol Ethertype parameter sets the Ethertype of the Service Provider tag, and is applicable only for Service Provider Links.
