set port priority
Enterasys C3 Configuration Guide 16-3
set port priority
Use this command to set the 802.1D (802.1p) Class-of-Service transmit priority (0 through 7) on
each port. A port receiving a frame without priority information in its tag header is assigned a
priority according to the priority setting on the port. For example, if the priority of a port is set to
5, the frames received through that port without a priority indicated in their tag header are
classified as a priority 5.
A frame with priority information in its tag header is transmitted according to that priority.
Syntax
set port priority port-string priority
Parameters
Defaults
None.
Mode
Switch command, read-write.
Usage
The set port priority command will not change the 802.1p priority tag on tagged traffic with a
default priority tag. The command only has an effect on how untagged traffic will be prioritized
as it passes internally through the device.
Example
This example shows how to set a default priority of 6 on ge.1.3. Frames received by this port
without priority information in their frame header are set to the default setting of 6:
C3(su)->set port priority ge.1.3 6
clear port priority
Use this command to reset the current CoS port priority setting to 0. This will cause all frames
received without a priority value in its header to be set to priority 0.
Syntax
clear port priority port-string
Parameters
port-string Specifies the port for which to set priority. For a detailed description of
possible port-string values, refer to “Port String Syntax Used in the CLI” on
page 11-1.
priority Specifies a value of 0 to 7 to set the CoS priority for the port entered in the
port-string. Priority value of 0 is the lowest priority.
port-string Specifies the port for which to clear priority. For a detailed description of
possible port-string values, refer to “Port String Syntax Used in the CLI” on
page 11-1.
