2.Type the MAC address for which priority on the GbE Interconnect Switch is to be established in the MAC Address field.

3.Type the priority level for the MAC address in the Priority Level field. The range is from 0 to 7, with 0 being the highest priority.

4.In the Look at field, select the state under which the priority will be active. The options are:

Dst. Addr—Packets with the selected MAC address as their destination will be given the selected priority.

Src. Addr—Packets with the selected MAC address as their source will be given the selected priority.

Either—All packets with the selected MAC address will be given the selected priority.

5.Click Apply to apply the changes.

NOTE: To save the configuration settings permanently, you must enter them into NVRAM using the Save Changes option on the Maintenance menu. Refer to the section, “Saving Changes,” earlier in this chapter.
