CoS/802.1p to a Queue

The CoS/802.1p to Queue page maps 802.1p priorities to egress queues. The CoS/802.1p to Queue Table determines the egress queues of the incoming packets based on the 802.1p priority in their VLAN Tags. For incoming untagged packets, the 802.1p priority is the default CoS/802.1p priority assigned to the ingress ports.

To map CoS values to egress queues, follow these steps:

Procedure

Step 1

Click Quality of Service > General > CoS/802.1p to Queue.

Step 2

Enter the parameters.

  • 802.1p—Displays the 802.1p priority tag values to be assigned to an egress queue, where 0 is the lowest and 7 is the highest priority.

  • Output Queue—Select the egress queue to which the 802.1p priority is mapped. Either four or eight egress queues are supported, where Queue 4 or Queue 8 is the highest priority egress queue and Queue 1 is the lowest priority.

Step 3

For each 802.1p priority, select the Output Queue to which it is mapped.

Step 4

Click Apply, Cancel or Restore Defaults. 801.1p priority values to queues are mapped, and the Running Configuration file is updated, the changes that entered are canceled, or previously defined values are restored.
