Implementation Information
The Dell Networking QoS implementation complies with IEEE 802.1p User Priority Bits for QoS Indication.
It also implements these Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) documents:
• RFC 2474, Definition of the Differentiated Services Field (DS Field) in the IPv4 Headers
• RFC 2475, An Architecture for Differentiated Services
• RFC 2597, Assured Forwarding PHB Group
• RFC 2598, An Expedited Forwarding PHB
You cannot configure port-based and policy-based QoS on the same interface.
Port-Based QoS Configurations
You can configure the following QoS features on an interface.
NOTE: You cannot simultaneously use egress rate shaping and ingress rate policing on the same
virtual local area network (VLAN).
•Setting dot1p Priorities for Incoming Traffic
•Configuring Port-Based Rate Policing
•Configuring Port-Based Rate Shaping

Setting dot1p Priorities for Incoming Traffic

Change the priority of incoming traffic on the interface using the dot1p-priority command from
INTERFACE mode. The Dell Networking OS places traffic marked with a priority in a queue based on the
following table.
If you set a dot1p priority for a port-channel, all port-channel members are configured with the same
value. You cannot assign a dot1p value to an individual interface in a port-channel.
