Priority trust mode on a port

The priority trust mode on a port determines which priority is used for priority mapping table lookup. Port

priority was introduced to use for priority mapping in addition to the priority fields carried in packets. The

Switch Series provides the following priority trust modes:

Using the 802.1p priority carried in packets for priority mapping.

mapping table is used)

NOTE:

When the 802.1p priority carried in packets is trusted, the port priority is used for priority mapping
for packets which do not carry VLAN tags (namely, do not carry 802.1p priorities.) The priority

mapping results are the same as not trusting packet priority, as shown in
