Command History
Usage Guidelines You can configure set precedence with other marking actions, specifically set cos, set discard-class,
set mpls, and set qos-group, for the same class.
You cannot use the set precedence command with the set dscp command to mark the same packet.
DSCP values and IP precedence values are mutually exclusive. A packet can have one value of the other,
but not both.
precedence_value Specifies an IPv4 precedence value with which to classify traffic. The
range is 0 to 7. You also can enter a mnemonic name for a commonly
used value.
• 0 to 7—Enter up to 4 precedence values separated by spaces.
• critical—Match packets with critical precedence (5).
• flash—Match packets with flash precedence (3).
• flash-override—Match packets with flash override precedence
(4).
• immediate—Match packets with immediate precedence (2).
• internet—Match packets with internetwork control precedence
(6).
• network—Match packets with network control precedence (7).
• priority—Match packets with priority precedence (1).
• routine—Match packets with routine precedence (0).
