QoS settings allow customization of packet priority in order to facilitate delivery of data traffic that might be affected by latency
problems. When CoS / 802.1p Tag Priority is applied, the Managed Switch recognizes 802.1Q VLAN tag packets and extracts
the VLAN tagged packets with User Priority value.

802.1p Tag Priority
Set up the COS priority level. With the drop-down selection item of Priority Type above being selected as COS only/COS first,
this control item will then be available to set the queuing policy for each port.
QoS settings allow customization of packet priority in order to facilitate delivery of data traffic that might be affected by latency
problems. The IEEE 802.1p Priority specification uses 8 priority levels to classify data packets. In 802.1p compliant devices, a
