8.2PORT PRIORITY CONFIGURATION SCREEN

When to Use

To set the priority (0 through 7) on each port. A port receiving a frame without priority information in its tag header is assigned a priority according to the priority setting on the port. For example, if the priority of a port is set to 5, the frames received through that port without a priority indicated in their tag header are classified as a priority 5.

A frame with priority information in its tag header is transmitted according to that priority.

NOTE: The priority is only changed while the SmartSwitch device is processing the frame. Frames received by the SmartSwitch device with a 1p priority value are transmitted with that same value.

How to Access
