Set Port Priority; Clear Port Priority - Enterasys Matrix DFE-Gold Series Configuration Manual

set port priority

fe.2.5 is set to 0
set port priority
Use this command to set the 802.1D (802.1p) Class‐of‐Service transmit queue priority (0 through 7)
on each port.
Syntax
set port priority port-string priority
Parameters
port‐string
priority
Defaults
None.
Mode
Switch command, Read‐Write.
Usage
For information on how to configure protocol‐based policy classification to a Class‐of‐Service,
including how to configure a CoS policy to override port transmit queue priority, refer to
Chapter
When CoS override is enabled using the set policy profile command as described in "set policy
profile" on page 8‐3, CoS‐based classification rules will take precedence over priority settings
configured with this command.
A port receiving a frame without priority information in its tag header is assigned a priority
according to the priority setting on the port. For example, if the priority of a port is set to 5, the
frames received through that port without a priority indicated in their tag header are classified as
a priority 5. A frame with priority information in its tag header is transmitted according to that
priority.
Example
This example shows how to set a default priority of 6 on fe.1.3. Frames received by this port
without priority information in their frame header are set to the default setting of 6:
Matrix(rw)->set port priority fe.1.3 6

clear port priority

Use this command to reset the current CoS port priority setting to 0.
Syntax
clear port priority port-string
Specifies the port for which to set priority. For a detailed description of
possible port‐string values, refer to "Port String Syntax Used in the CLI"
on page 4‐2.
Specifies a value of 0 ‐ 7 to set the CoS port priority for the port entered
in the port‐string. Port priority value of 0 is the lowest priority.
