Item Remarks

Priority

Set the local precedence value for the port.
Local precedence is allocated by the device and has only local significance. A local

precedence value corresponds to an output queue. A packet with higher local
precedence is assigned to a higher priority output queue to be preferentially

scheduled.

Trust Mode

Set the priority trust mode of the port:

Untrust—Uses the port priority rather than a packet priority value for priority

mapping.

Dot1p—Uses the 802.1p priority of received packets for priority mapping.

DSCP—Uses the DSCP value of received packets for priority mapping.

IMPORTANT:

Support for priority trust modes depends on the interface type.

Configuring a QoS policy

A QoS policy defines what QoS actions to take on what class of traffic for purposes such as traffic

shaping or traffic policing. Before configuring a QoS policy, be familiar with these concepts: class, traffic

behavior, and policy.

Class

Classes identify traffic.
A class is identified by a class name and contains some match criteria for identifying traffic. The
relationship between the criteria can be:

AND—A packet is considered belonging to a class only when the packet matches all the criteria in
the class.

OR—A packet is considered belonging to a class if it matches any of the criteria in the class.

Traffic behavior

A traffic behavior, identified by a name, defines a set of QoS actions for packets.

Policy

A policy associates a class with a traffic behavior to define what actions to take on which class of traffic.
You can define multiple class-traffic behavior associations in a policy.
You can apply a policy to a port to regulate traffic sent or received on the port. A QoS policy can be

applied to multiple ports, but in one direction (inbound or outbound) of a port, only one QoS policy can

be applied.
