QoS Global Configuration

Global configuration allows you to assign priorities for how the switch transmits data. Priority can be assigned either by port number (Port Based) or by the type of data being transmitted (802.1p based). You would typically want to assign a low priority for normal classes of data (email, internet browsing, and ordinary data transfers) and high priority to video, voice, and other delay sensitive data.

Port Based Priority

Port-based priority works by assigning a priority to all data passing through a particular port. A higher priority transmits data with a minimum of delays. If packets arrive at several ports at the same time, the ports configured as higher priority transmit their packets first. You must determine which ports are going to carry delay sensitive data.
