IEEE 802.1p Priority Commands

This chapter explains IEEE 802.1p Priority CI Commands.

11.1Introduction

IEEE 802.1p Priority CI Commands assign priority levels to individual ports. IEEE 802.1p defines up to eight priorities (0-7) by inserting a tag into a MAC-layer frame that contains bits to define priority of service.

11.2IEEE 802.1p Priority Commands

Bridge port 1 stands for the Ethernet port, bridge port 2 stands for DSL port 1, bridge port 3

stands for DSL port 2, and so on.

11.2.1Priority Port Command

Syntax:

192.168.1.1 vlan1q> priority port <port #> <priority>

where

 

 

<port #>

=

A bridge port number. Valid parameter range = [1 - 9].

<priority>

=

The default priority for the specified port. Valid parameter range = [0 - 7],

 

 

where 0 is the lowest priority and 7 is the highest priority.

This command sets the default priority that is assigned to untagged frames from a specified ingress port.

To display the default port priority table, simply use the Priority Port command without parameters, as shown next.
