Table 4-7 describes the arbitrated loop parameters.
VC Multicast
Sets the virtual channel used for multicast frame
traffic. Verify that the multicast channel has the
frame class priority set to the frame class of the
expected traffic.

VC Priority 2-7
The numbers displayed show the priorities
assigned to each of the switch's virtual chan-
nels. Allowed values are 2 or 3, indicating that
the channel gives priority to either Class 2 or
Class 3 frame traffic, respectively.
