12.2.1 Port-Based QoS
The Port-Based QoS
feature assigns priority to data transmitted through a particular port. When the data
arrives to a port it begins a queue. Therefore the Switch has a queue for each port. If data arrives at the
same time to all ports, ports with higher priority will be first to transmit the data received. The higher the
priority of the port, the less delays the data passing through will have.
12.2.2 IEEE 802.1p QoS
IEEE 802.1p defines a 3-bit field called PCP (Priority Code Point) within the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag, which is
also referred to as a CoS (Class of Service) value and indicates the frame priority level. IEEE 802.1p QoS
uses the priority value (from 0 to 7) to define up to eight traffic types. That is, each priority level defines a
class of service. The table below shows the IEEE recommendations for traffic types, these may vary or be
reassigned.
Note: Frames without an explicit priority tag are treated as system traffic and assigned to
Queue0
.
