The priority mapping procedure presented above applies in the absence of priority marking. If priority

marking is configured, the device performs priority marking before priority mapping, and then uses the

re-marked packet-carried priority for priority mapping or directly uses the re-marked scheduling priority

for traffic scheduling depending on your configuration. In this case, neither priority trust mode

configuration on the port nor port priority configuration takes effect.
