CoS tagging commands
shows the commands you can use to change the CoS field within incoming
packets.
Mapping CoS tags to traffic types
The command
enables you to create a switch-wide mapping
of CoS values to egress queues. The default mappings for this command are:
COS : 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
--------------------------------
QUEUE: 2 0 1 3 4 5 6 7
These mappings match the CoS guidelines documented in Annex H.2 of ANSI/IEEE 802.1D
1988 Edition. Table H-15 on page 355 of the standard shows a table of user priorities for
specific traffic types.
shows an adapted version of the ANSI/IEEE table.
Table 38-3: CoS Mapping Commands in Hierarchical Order
Command
Function
Where a packet contains CoS tag and a DSCP tag. The
table set by this command contains a configurable
DSCP to CoS tag mapping.
Configures the remark map. This command is applied
when a policer is configured with the action parameter
of the command
set to remark-
transmit.
Note
Where a packet contains both a CoS and a DSCP field, and each field maps to a
different class-map; the switch will apply a priority that is based on the date
that the class-map was added to the policy-map; the earlier the date, the higher
the priority.
