the incoming packets with the new values set in the DSCP to Queue

page. When this field is enabled, the switch uses the new DSCP

values to select the egress queue.

Assigning Global Settings Using CLI Commands

The following table summarizes the CLI commands for configuring fields in

the Global Settings page.

The following is an example of the CLI commands:

DSCP Rewrite

Use the DSCP Rewrite page to rewrite the DSCP tags for incoming traffic,

when different DSCP values are used in the incoming and outgoing domains.

Changing the DSCP value used in one domain to the DSCP value used in the

other domain preserves the priority of traffic used in the first domain.
As an example, assume that there are three levels of service: Silver, Gold, and

Platinum. The DSCP incoming values used to mark these levels are 10, 20,

and 30 respectively. If this traffic is forwarded to another service provider that

has the same three levels of service, but uses DSCP values 16, 24, and 48, the

values set in the DSCP Rewrite page are used to change the incoming values

to the outgoing values.
