An Ethernet frame with an 802.1q tag header
As shown in
Figure 1-3
, each host supporting the 802.1q protocol adds a 4-byte 802.1q tag
header after the source address field of the former Ethernet frame header when sending
packets.
The 4-byte 802.1q tag header consists of a two-byte tag protocol identifier (TPID) field,
whose value is 0x8100, and a two-byte tag control information (TCI) field.
Figure 1-4
presents the format of the 802.1q tag header.

In
Figure 1-4
, the three-bit priority field in TCI is 802.1p precedence (also known as CoS
precedence), which ranges from 0 to 7.

The precedence in the 802.1q tag header is called 802.1p precedence because its use is
defined in IEEE 802.1p.
