Traffic from 802.1p client stations is classified based
on the VLAN priority field present within the VLAN
header. When this mechanism is selected, the Wi² AP
will advertise WME capabilities, enabling WME clients
to associate and take advantage of them. This setting
has no effect on legacy clients.
Note: To support 802.1p, the wireless profile must have
a VLAN assigned to it, which means that client station
traffic is forwarded onto the LAN port only.
Allows a specific priority level to be specified for all
traffic on a VAP (VSC) profile. This enables client
stations without a QoS mechanism to set traffic
priority by connecting to the appropriate SSID.
If you enable this priority mechanism, it takes
precedence regardless of the priority mechanism
supported by associated client stations. For example, if
you set SSID-based low priority for a profile, all devices
that connect to the profile have their traffic set at this
priority
Mapping to the traffic queues is as follows: vap0 or
very-high=queue 1, vap1 or high=queue 2, vap2 or
normal=queue 3, vap3 or low=queue 4
Differential services is a method for defining IP traffic
priority on a per-hop basis. The Differential Service bits
are defined in RFC2474 and are composed of the six
most significant bits of the IP TOS field. These bits
define the class selector code points which the CN320
maps to the appropriate traffic queue. (default setting)
The IP TOS (type of service) field can be used to mark
prioritization or special handling for IP packets.
