BigIron(config-if-1/1)# write memory
Syntax: [no] priority <num>
The <num> parameter can be from 0 – 7 and specifies the IEEE 802.1 equivalent to one of the four QoS queues.
To change the QoS priority of port 1 on a Stackable device to the high queue, enter the following commands:
NetIron(config)# interface ethernet 1
NetIron(config-if-1)# priority high
NetIron(config-if-1)# write memory
Syntax: [no] priority high | normal
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
dialog is displayed.
2. Click on the Port link to display the Port table.
3. Scroll down to the port for which you want to change the QoS level, then click on the Modify button to the right
of the port information to display the Port configuration panel, as shown in the following example.
4. Select the QoS level:
• On a Chassis device, select a number from 0 – 7 from the QoS field’s pulldown menu.
• On a Stackable device, select high or normal from the QoS field’s pulldown menu.
5. Click the Apply button to save the change to the device’s running-config file.
6. Select the Save link at the bottom of the dialog, then select Yes when prompted to save the configuration
change to the startup-config file on the device’s flash memory.
Changing a Layer 2 Port-Based VLAN’s Priority
By default, VLANs have priority 0 (Chassis devices) or normal (Stackable device). To change a port-based
VLAN’s QoS priority, use one of the following methods. The priority applies to outbound traffic on ports in the
VLAN.
