Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

You can use the capwap control-link-priority command to configure the DSCP priority of CAPWAP management packets. A higher priority indicates a more reliable link between the AC and AP.

The configuration of the priority of CAPWAP management packets from an AC to an AP takes effect immediately. After the priority of CAPWAP management packets from an AP to an AC is changed, if the AP is online, the priority is sent to the AP in the Echo packet. If the AP is not online, the priority is delivered to the AP in the Echo packet when the AP goes online. The new priority takes effect once the AP receives it.

Precautions

Configure priority 4 to 7 for CAPWAP management packets from an AC to an AP, preventing the CAPWAP management tunnel from being interrupted due to large traffic.

Example

# Set the priority of CAPWAP management packets from an AC to an AP to 6.
