Once the previous parameters are set, users should go to the Priority Settings window located in this folder and set the egress ports on the switch to MAC Priority. These ports must only be set for MAC Priority and not for any other priority choice. Please be advised that the default priority setting is for 802.1p and users must change the priority to MAC Priority for this function to work properly.

MAC Priority
When using the MAC Priority mechanism, the packet is classified based on the MAC address field priority in the MAC priority
table entries.
To configure a destination MAC address for a CoS queue, users must adhere to the following steps:
1.
Users must first enter a static destination MAC address into the Forwarding Database (FDB) of the switch. To
accomplish this, go to the Unicast Forwarding table in the
Forwarding Filtering
folder under the
Configuration
menu
and click on the
Unicast Forwarding
link, which will display a window for users to enter this information.
2.
Once a destination MAC has been added to the FDB, users must then configure the appropriate queue to be mapped to
this destination MAC address, using the following window.
3.
Once the previous parameters are set, users should go to the
Priority Settings
window located in this folder and set the
egress ports on the switch to
MAC Priority
. These ports must only be set for MAC Priority and not for any other priority
choice. Please be advised that the default priority setting is for 802.1p and users must change the priority to MAC
Priority for this function to work properly. Be sure that the device with this destination MAC address is connected to the
port for which this priority is configured.
To view this window click
CoS
>
MAC Priority
:
Figure 8- 11. MAC Priority window
Enter the destination
MAC Address
that you have previously entered into the
Unicast Forwarding
window, and select a Class
ID where packets containing this destination MAC address will be sent. Click
Apply
to implement changes made.
