Dynamic Mode CoS for VLAN Stacking

One of the ways to ensure quality of service for customer VLAN-tagged frames is to use the 802.1p priority bits in the tag to indicate
the level of QoS desired.
When an S-Tag is added to incoming customer frames, the 802.1p bits on the S-Tag may be configured statically for each customer
or derived from the C-Tag using Dynamic Mode CoS. Dynamic Mode CoS maps the C-Tag 802.1p value to a S-Tag 802.1p value.
