Configuring the GbE Interconnect Switch using the Menu-driven Interface
Configuring Class of Service, Default Port Priority, and Traffic
Class
This section describes how to configure class of service, default port priority, and traffic
class. For information on how to set the class of service queue options, refer to the
“Configuring Advanced GbE Interconnect Switch Features” section earlier in this chapter.
Class of Service (CoS) for packet prioritization allows you to set priority levels on the GbE
Interconnect Switch for forwarding packets based on the priority setting information in the
packets. The GbE Interconnect Switch supports four classes (0-3) of traffic (buffers or
queues) for implementing priority and allows eight priority levels (0-7) to be mapped to the
four classes. Traffic from a specific server port can be given priority over packets from other
devices according to the range of priority levels.
To configure Class of Service, default priority, and traffic class:
1. Highlight Configure Class of Service, Default Priority and Traffic Class on the
Configuration menu.
2. Press the Enter key. The following menu is displayed.
