When the VLAN is deployed through a server template, the SmartFabric Services update
all participating switches with a QoS class map. This class map uses VLAN ID
classification. A QoS policy map and then assigns all traffic matching the class map to the
appropriate data queue.
Note: For more information about QoS, see the OS10EE Enterprise Edition Users Guide.

port.
