Chapter 11 QoS The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 18 Port Based QoS LABEL DESCRIPTION Mode Select Port Based QoS to specify priority rules based on the port of incoming packets. Change Priority Configure the following: • Port - Select the number of the port for which you want to assign IEEE 802.1p priority to incoming frames. • Priority - Select the IEEE 802.1p priority you want to assign to the packets coming into the Switch on the port specified in the Port field. Click Change to view your changed settings. Port, Priority Apply Change Settings Note: The changes are not applied until you click Apply Change Settings. This is a summary table of your port to IEEE 802.1p priority mappings. The Port column indicates the port number of the incoming packets and the Priority column indicates what IEEE 802.1p priority gets assigned to those packets. Click this when you have reviewed the changes you want to make and you want to save them to the Switch's memory. 11.4.2 DSCP Based QoS The Switch allows you to create a mapping table between Differentiated Services Code Points (DSCPs) tags and IEEE 802.1p priority tags. 11.4.3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) Overview Differentiated Services (DiffServ) is a class of service (CoS) model that marks packets so that they receive specific per-hop treatment at DiffServ-compliant network devices along the route based on the application types and traffic flow. Packets are marked with DiffServ Code Points (DSCPs) indicating the level of service desired. This allows the intermediary DiffServ-compliant network devices to handle the packets differently depending on the code points without the need to negotiate paths or remember state information for every flow. In addition, applications do not have to request a particular service or give advanced notice of where the traffic is going. DiffServ defines a new DS (Differentiated Services) field to replace the Type of Service (ToS) field in the IP header. The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and a 6-bit DSCP field which can define up to 64 service levels. 72 GS-1524/GS-1548 User's Guide

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
11.4.2
DSCP Based QoS
The Switch allows you to create a mapping table between Differentiated Services
Code Points (DSCPs) tags and IEEE 802.1p priority tags.
11.4.3
Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) Overview
Differentiated Services (DiffServ) is a class of service (CoS) model that marks
packets so that they receive specific per-hop treatment at DiffServ-compliant
network devices along the route based on the application types and traffic flow.
Packets are marked with DiffServ Code Points (DSCPs) indicating the level of
service desired. This allows the intermediary DiffServ-compliant network devices
to handle the packets differently depending on the code points without the need to
negotiate paths or remember state information for every flow. In addition,
applications do not have to request a particular service or give advanced notice of
where the traffic is going.
DiffServ defines a new DS (Differentiated Services) field to replace the Type of
Service (ToS) field in the IP header. The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and
a 6-bit DSCP field which can define up to 64 service levels.
