| port_tag | Represents a DSCP port tag, which is a string that is mapped to a TCP or UDP port to identify the application that uses the port. This value is for the portTag field displayed when you use the command show dscp defaults. The set of port tags is predefined. |
| value | A DSCP value. You can enter the name of a well-known DSCP class or a numeric value in decimal or hexadecimal format. Precede hexadecimal values with 0x or 0X. |
Command Modes
Administrator (admin:)
Usage Guidelines
The valid class names as defined by DSCP are:
Class Selector: values CS0, CS1, CS2, CS3, CS5, CS6, CS7
The class selector (CS) values correspond to IP Precedence values and are fully compatible with IP Precedence.
Expedited Forwarding: value EF
EF PHB is ideally suited for applications such as VoIP that require low bandwidth, guaranteed bandwidth, low delay, and low jitter.
Best Effort: value BE
Also called default PHB, this value essentially specifies that a packet be marked with 0x00, which gets
the traditional best-effort service from the network router.
Assured Forwarding: values AF11, AF12, AF13, AF21, AF22, AF23, AF41, AF42, AF43
There are four types of Assured Forwarding classes, each of which has three drop precedence values.
These precedence values define the order in which a packet is dropped (if needed) due to network
congestion. For example, packets in AF13 class are dropped before packets in the AF12 class.
