Smart Switch Software User Manual GS748T Two possible system mode implementations of QoS are supported: • IEEE 802.1p-based QoS. • DSCP-based (Differentiated Services Code Point) QoS. To specify the QoS Global system mode: 1. Select QoS > Basic > QoS Global Configuration from the main menu. The QoS Global Configuration screen will display. 2. Select either the 802.1p Based radio box or the DSCP Based radio box. 3. Click Apply. IEEE 802.1p-Based QoS IEEE 802.1p-based QoS enables the user to map each of the eight priority levels specified in IEEE 802.1p (p0 to p7) to one of four internal hardware priority queues: High, Normal, Low, and Lowest. The eight priority levels specified in IEEE 802.1p (p0 to p7) are implemented by a threebit priority field in the VLAN tag. The switch empties the four hardware priority queues in order, from High to Lowest. Packets are transferred to empty the buffers of each higher hardware priority queue in turn before the next lower hardware priority queue can begin to transfer its received packets through the switch. The 802.1p to Queue Mapping table contains fields for mapping 802.1p priority values to the four hardware traffic queues To map 802.1p priorities to queues: 1. Select QoS > Advanced > 802.1p Queue Mapping. The 802.1p to Queue Mapping screen will display. Figure 4-20 4-18 v1.0, October 2007 Configuring the Switch
