The priority mapping procedure presented above applies in the absence of priority marking. If priority
marking is configured, the device performs priority marking before priority mapping, and then uses the
re-marked packet-carried priority for priority mapping or directly uses the re-marked scheduling priority
for traffic scheduling depending on your configuration. In this case, neither priority trust mode
configuration on the port nor port priority configuration takes effect.
