Setting Up a Port CoS Mapping Configuration Job
A port CoS mapping is used to control the class of service assigned to the outer VLAN tag of input frames on which a dual VLAN tag action (e.g. push-push or push-replace) was applied in the unit. There is one configurable port CoS mapping for each physical or logical (LAG) port in the system.
The Port CoS mapping defines how to map the PCP (Priority Code Point) value of the outer VLAN tag based on the conformance level (Green/Yellow) of the outgoing frame and on the PCP value of its inner VLAN tag.
The mapping configuration is a translation table from one Service Provider's priority scheme to another's. Consequently, if you are not putting traffic through multiple Service Providers' networks, you do not need to modify the values in this page.
To configure a Port CoS mapping
Access the page Commission ▶ Jobs.
Set all common configuration job settings, as described in "Creating Configuration Jobs in GUI Mode" and in "Creating Configuration Jobs Using Data Sets".
Select Port CoS Mapping in the left pane. The Port CoS Mapping tab is displayed.
Complete all fields of the Port CoS Mapping tab as required.
Use the Add button or Duplicate button to add Port CoS Mapping settings as required. For more information on specific parameters, see the table below.
Note: When duplicating a row, always select the row to duplicate before clicking the Duplicate button.
Click Apply, then click Close.
Click the Refresh button to refresh the user interface.

General
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Port Name | The outgoing port (physical or LAG) to which this CoS mapping applies. |
Encode using DEI | Select this box to instruct the unit to control the DEI (Drop Eligible Indicator) bit in the outer S-VLAN or T-VLAN tag. If this field is enabled and the outgoing frame is marked yellow, then the DEI bit is set to 1; if not, the DEI bit is set to 0. Note: If your network supports this feature, it is recommended that you enable this box. |
