Introduction to QoS 215
2 802.1p priority
802.1p priority lies in Layer 2 packet headers and is applicable to occasions where the
Layer 3 packet header does not need analysis but QoS must be assured in Layer 2.
Figure 65 An Ethernet frame with a 802.1Q tag header
As shown in Figure 65, each host supporting 802.1Q protocol adds a 4-bit 802.1Q
tag header after the source address of the former Ethernet frame header when
sending packets.
The 4-bit 802.1Q tag header contains a 2-bit Tag Protocol Identifier (TPID) whose
value is 8100 and a 2-bit Tag Control Information (TCI). TPID is a new class defined by
IEEE to indicate a packet with an 802.1Q tag. Figure 66 describes the detailed
contents of an 802.1Q tag header.
Figure 66 802.1Q tag headers
In Figure 66, the 3-bit priority field in TCI is 802.1p priority in the range of 0 to 7.The
3 bits specify the precedence of the frame.8 classes of precedence are used to
determine which packet is sent preferentially when the switch is congested.
