PCP action
This section selects the PCP (Priority Code Points) action to perform. Possible values are:
•
Preserve
: Keep the PCP bits if the packet is already tagged
•
Direct
: Add the default PCP value
•
Map
: Use a CoS profile for PCP selection
For each PCP action there is one or two traffic mapping choices and the default PCP bits to
use if the packet does not match the first and the second choices. The following tables show
the valid selection of the first and second choice for each of the PCP actions
PCP Preservation
If this option is selected, PCP bits are copied from the first VLAN(if any). If the packet is not
tagged, the user may select the PCP bits from an IP precedence / DSCP CoS profile. It is also
possible to select a bandwidth regulator set for traffic regulation.
PCP Direct
If this option is selected, the first and second choices are ignored. The PCP bits are forced to
the default green or yellow values based on the result of the bandwidth regulator or the
pre-marking color. It should be noted that the pre-marking color
red
is ignored if the default
bandwidth regulator is not enabled.
