Quality of Service (QoS): Managing Bandwidth More Effectively
Using QoS Classifiers To Configure QoS for Outbound Traffic
QoS
| QoS Classifier Precedence: 2 |
| The IP device option, which applies only to IPv4 packets, uses two rules per |
| IP address on all ports in the switch. Where a particular |
| classifier has the highest precedence in the switch for traffic addressed to or |
| from that device, then traffic received on the switch with that address is |
| marked with the IP address classifier’s configured priority level. Different IP |
| device classifiers can have differing priority levels. |
|
|
N o t e | The switch does not allow a QoS |
| IP address, if configured. If there is no Management VLAN configured, then |
| the switch does not allow configuring a QoS |
| VLAN IP address. |
| IP address QoS does not support |

Options for Assigning Priority. Priority control options for packets carrying a specified IP address include:
■802.1p priority
■DSCP policy (Assigning a new DSCP and an 802.1p priority; inbound packets must be IPv4.)
(For operation when other QoS classifiers apply to the same traffic, refer to “Classifiers for Prioritizing Outbound Packets” on page
For a given IP address, you can use only one of the above options at a time. However, for different IP addresses, you can use different options.
