The priority levels recommended in the IEEE 802.1p standard for various network
applications are shown in the following table. However, you can map the priority
levels to the switch’s output queues in any way that benefits application traffic for
your own network.
Command Attributes
• Priority – CoS value. (Range: 0-7, where 7 is the highest priority)

– Output queue buffer. (Range: 0-3, where 3 is the highest CoS
priority queue)
Web – Cli
ck Priority, Traffic Classes. Select a port or trunk for the current mapping of
CoS values to output queues to be displayed. Assign priorities to the traffic classes
(i.e., output queues), then click Apply.
