Port Status and Basic Configuration

Configuring Port-Based Priority for Incoming Packets on the 4100gl and 6108 Switches

For example, suppose you wanted to configure ports A10 -A12 on the switch to prioritize all untagged, inbound VLAN traffic as "Low" (priority level = 1; refer to table 10-3 on page 10-30).

Ports A9 - A12 are now configured to assign a priority level of "1" (Low) to untagged, incoming traffic. (Any inbound, tagged traffic retains its priority level while transiting the switch.)

Configures port-based priority on ports A9 -A12 to "1" (Low) and saves the configuration changes to the startup­ config file.
