2.2.8 Packet Prioritization, 802.1p QOS
Quality of Service means providing consistent predictable data delivery to
users from datagram paths that go all across a network. As a LAN device, the Magnum
6K16-Series can do its part to prevent any QOS degradation while it is handling Ethernet
traffic through its ports and buffers.
The Magnum 6K16-Series switching hardware supports the IEEE 802.1p
standard and fulfills its role in support of QOS, giving packet processing priority to
priority tagged packets according to the 802.1p standard. In addition to hardware support
for QOS, the MNS software (R2) supports two priority queues that can be shared across
the eight levels of defined packet priorities for application-specific priority control by the
user through software configuration settings.
