* Note: 802.1p packets that are received with a tag priority of 0

on a 50 series L2 (non-routing) module, but which must
be routed via the FORE path on an 80 series supervisor,
will be queued and transmitted with a priority of 4.
Refer to the "Routing with Layer 2 and Layer 3
Modules" section l
ater in this chapter for more
information. This is due to the conversion from the
high/low priority system that is used on 50 series
modules to the 8-level priority system that is used on 80
series modules.
