Priority Tagging
Description
With priority tagging, you can specify a priority value for traffic based on
MAC source or destination addresses. For example, you could tag all
packets from computer A with a priority of 7 (high).
When you define priority tagging, you can specify a priority value from 0
(low) to 7 (high). Traffic with a priority value of 0 - 3 is routed through the
switch’s low priority queue. Traffic with a priority value of 4 - 7 is routed
through the switch’s high priority queue.
Tag traffic: Select source or destination as the criteria for tagged traffic.
Enter MAC: Type the source or destination MAC address of traffic to tag
with a priority value.
VLAN ID: If the device whose MAC address you are adding to the list is a
member of a VLAN, type the VLAN ID here.
Priority level: Toggle to the desired priority level. Traffic with a priority
of 0–3 is routed through the low priority queue; 4–7 is routed through the
high priority queue.
ADD or DELETE: Adds or deletes the specified MAC address.
