Priority
In compliance with the IEEE 802.1p Standard (a subset of 802.1Q), each port can
be set with one of eight levels of prioritization designated numerically from 0 to 7: 0
denotes no priority and 7 denotes the highest priority. This allows packets coming
from ports configured with higher priorities to scavenge bandwidth from lower
priority ports if, or when, bandwidth becomes scarce.
Priority = 0 – 7
Default: 0 (no priority)
VLAN Range
Paradyne's IP DSLAMs and Micro DSLAMs comply with the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area
Networks, specifically, the 802.1Q Virtual Bridge Local Area Networks Standard.
VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) tags are a packet's primary identification
unless used in conjunction with a Backbone-VLAN tag. VLAN start and end tags
indicate the 802.1Q VLAN tag range to be supported for each port. Depending on
your Micro DSLAM or interface module model type, up to 10 VLAN ranges may be
specified per port, each of which may be configured with VLAN 0, a single VLAN
or VLAN range.
When configuring VLAN Range(s) for a port, both Start and End VLAN tags must
be entered for ALL ranges, including single VLAN and VLAN OFF.
VLAN 0 / OFF (Default)
VLAN mode is OFF when all possible VLAN ranges are configured at zero. Only
packets WITHOUT a designated VLAN tag are allowed to communicate across a
port with VLAN OFF.

Then . . .
The configured priority is irrelevant; the packet
doesn't have VLAN tags.
The configured priority will automatically be added
to the VLAN tag and Backbone-VLAN tag (if
utilized).
The existing priority in the VLAN tag(s) and
Backbone-VLAN tag (if utilized) will automatically be
replaced with the configured priority.
