VLAN Stacking Packet Drop Precedence
The drop eligible indicator (DEI) bit in the S-Tag indicates to a service provider bridge which packets it
should prefer to drop when congested.
Enabling Drop Eligibility
Enable drop eligibility globally before you can honor or mark the DEI value.
When you enable drop eligibility, DEI mapping or marking takes place according to the defaults. In this
case, the CFI is affected according to the following table.
