Enterasys Networks 9034313-07 manual Set port priority, Clear port priority

set port priority

set port priority

Use this command to set the 802.1D (802.1p) Class‐of‐Service transmit 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.

Syntax

set port priority port-string priority

Parameters

port‐string	Specifies the port for which to set priority. For a detailed description of
	possible port‐string values, refer to “Port String Syntax Used in the CLI” on
	page 7‐1.
priority	Specifies a value of 0 to 7 to set the CoS priority for the port entered in the
	port‐string. Priority value of 0 is the lowest priority.

Defaults

None.

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

The set port priority command will not change the 802.1p priority tag on tagged traffic with a default priority tag. The command only has an effect on how untagged traffic will be prioritized as it passes internally through the device.

Example

This example shows how to set a default priority of 6 on ge.1.3. Frames received by this port without priority information in their frame header are set to the default setting of 6:

C3(su)->set port priority ge.1.3 6

clear port priority

Use this command to reset the current CoS port priority setting to 0. This will cause all frames received without a priority value in its header to be set to priority 0.

Syntax

clear port priority port-string

Parameters

port‐string	Specifies the port for which to clear priority. For a detailed description of
	possible port‐string values, refer to “Port String Syntax Used in the CLI” on
	page 7‐1.
