CONFIGURING THE SWITCH

CLI – This example assigns a CoS value of zero to packets matching rules within the specified ACL on port 1.

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/13-1

Console(config-if)#map access-list ip bill cos 03-128

Console(config-if)#

Changing Priorities Based on ACL Rules

You can change traffic priorities for frames matching the defined ACL rule. (This feature is commonly referred to as ACL packet marking.) This switch can change the IEEE 802.1p priority, IP Precedence, or DSCP Priority of IP frames; or change the IEEE 802.1p priority of Layer 2 frames. (This feature is commonly referred to as ACL packet marking.) Use the no form to remove the ACL marker.

Command Usage

You must configure an ACL mask before you can change priorities based on a rule.

Traffic priorities may be included in the IEEE 802.1p priority tag. This tag is also incorporated as part of the overall IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag. The 802.1p priority may be set for either Layer 2 or IP frames.

The IP frame header also includes priority bits in the Type of Service (ToS) octet. The Type of Service octet may contain three bits for IP Precedence or six bits for Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) service. Note that the IP frame header can include either the IP Precedence or DSCP priority type.

The precedence for priority mapping by this switch is IP Precedence or DSCP Priority, and then 802.1p priority.
