The following example shows how to assign round-robin weights of 1 - 8 to

the CoS priority queues 0 - 7.

switchport priority

default

This command sets a priority for incoming untagged frames. Use the no

form to restore the default value.

YNTAX

switchport priority default default-priority-id
no switchport priority default

default-priority-id - The priority number for untagged ingress traffic.

The priority is a number from 0 to 7. Seven is the highest priority.

D

EFAULT

S

ETTING

The priority is not set, and the default value for untagged frames received

on the interface is zero.

The precedence for priority mapping is IP Port, IP Precedence or IP

DSCP, and then default switchport priority.

The default priority applies for an untagged frame received on a port

set to accept all frame types (i.e, receives both untagged and tagged

frames). This priority does not apply to IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagged

frames. If the incoming frame is an IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagged frame,

the IEEE 802.1p User Priority bits will be used.

The switch provides eight priority queues for each port. It can be

configured to use strict priority queuing, Weighted Round Robin (WRR),

or a combination of strict and weighted queuing using the

queue mode

command. Inbound frames that do not have VLAN tags are tagged with

the input port's default ingress user priority, and then placed in the

appropriate priority queue at the output port. The default priority for all

ingress ports is zero. Therefore, any inbound frames that do not have

priority tags will be placed in queue 2 of the output port. (Note that if

the output port is an untagged member of the associated VLAN, these

frames are stripped of all VLAN tags prior to transmission.)
