8021p - 802.1p Menu

Use the Quality of Service (QoS) menus to configure the IEEE 802.1p priority value of incoming packets. This allows you to differentiate between various types of traffic, and provide different priority levels. The following table describes the QoS Configuration Menu options.

8021p	Displays 802.1p configuration menu.

QoS 802.1p configuration

Command: /cfg/qos/8021p

[802.1p Menu]
priq	- Set priority to COS queue mapping
qweight	- Set weight to a COS queue
numcos	- Set number of COS queue
default	- Reset 802.1p configuration to default values.
cur	- Display current 802.1p configuration

This feature provides the HP 10GbE switch the capability to filter IP packets based on the IEEE 802.1p bits in the packet's VLAN header. The 802.1p bits specify the priority that you should give to the packets while forwarding them. The packets with a higher (non-zero) priority bits are given forwarding preference over packets with numerically lower priority bits value.

The following table describes the 802.1p Configuration Menu options.
