Priority Classification Profile
The Priority Classification Profile defines the QoS Profiles to be allocated
to users/sessions differentiated by DSCP or 802.1p priority classifiers.
Each Priority Classification Profile may define up to 4 uplink and 4
downlink QoS profiles.
NOTE
DSCP based Priority classification Profiles are applicable only to IP or ARP traffic. It is
not applicable to PPPoE and other Ethernet type traffic.
If a Priority Classification Profile is not applicable for a certain traffic (e.g. DSCP based
profile with PPPoE traffic or 802.1p based profile with traffic that do not use VLAN tags),
no prioritization scheme will be in effect and quality of service will be determined by the
first QoS Profile in the applicable lists.
The Priority Classification Profile menu enables defining new Priority
Classification Profiles, viewing or editing details of previously defined
Priority Classification Profiles and removing Priority Classification
Profiles from the database.
The configurable Priority Classification Profile's parameters are:
Priority Classification Profile Name
Priority Classification Profile Name can include up to 32 printable
characters.
Priority Type
The prioritization mechanism used by the Priority Classification Profile.
The available options are:
1 – DSCP
2 – 802.1p
Uplink Upper Priority Limits
The Uplink Upper Priority Limits parameter enables to define up to four
ranges, where each range may be assigned a different QoS Profile for
uplink communication. The list includes up to 4 numbers separated by
commas, where each number must be higher than its predecessor and
the last number must be the highest available for the applicable priority
type (7 for 802.1p, 63 for DSCP).
Examples for acceptable lists:
DSCP Priority: [10,30,50,63]; [21,42,63]; [20,63]; [63].
802.1p Priority: [2,4,6,7]; [1,5,7]; [6,7]; [7].
