Configuring Port Classification; Setting The Basic Qos Parameters For A Port - AMX NXA-ENET8-2POE Operation/Reference Manual

Configuring the NXA-ENET8-2POE
The switch also allows you to configure QoS classification criteria and service policies. The switch's resources
can be prioritized to meet the requirements of specific traffic types on a per hop basis. Each packet is classified
upon entry into the network based on Ethernet type, VLAN ID, TCP/UDP port, DSCP, ToS, or its VLAN
priority tag. Based on configured network policies, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different kinds
of forwarding.

Configuring Port Classification

Use the QoS Ingress Port Classification page to set the basic QoS parameters for a port, including the default
traffic class, DP level (IEEE 802.1p), user priority, drop eligible indicator, classification mode for tagged
frames, and DSCP-based QoS classification.

Port identifier.
Controls the default QoS class, i.e., the QoS class for frames not classified in any
other way. There is a one to one mapping between QoS class, queue and priority.
A QoS class of 0 (zero) has the lowest priority. (Range: 0-7; Default: 0)
Controls the default drop priority for frames not classified in any other way.
(Range: 0-1; Default: 0)
Controls the default Priority Code Point (or User Priority) for untagged frames.
(Range: 0-7; Default: 0)
Controls the default Drop Eligible Indicator for untagged frames. (Range: 0-1;
Default: 0)
Shows classification mode for tagged frames on this port:
Disabled - Uses the default QoS class and DP level for tagged frames.
Enabled - Uses the mapped versions of PCP and DEI for tagged frames.
Click on the mode in order to configure the mode and/or mapping.
Click to Enable DSCP Based QoS Ingress Port Classification (see page 134).
Sets classification mode for tagged frames on this port:
Disabled - Uses the default QoS class and DP level for tagged frames. (This is the
default.)
Enabled - Uses the mapped versions of PCP and DEI for tagged frames.
Shows the mapping options for classified (PCP, DEI) to (QoS class, DP level)
values when Tag Classification is Enabled.
Controls the mapping of classified (PCP, DEI) to QoS class values when Tag
Classification is Enabled. (Range: 0-7; Default: 0)
Controls the mapping of classified (PCP, DEI) to DP level (drop precedence)
values when Tag Classification is Enabled. (Range: 0-1; Default: 0)
