Default Settings for Priority Mapping

Mapping from Priorities to CoS Values (PHBs) and Colors in the Inbound Direction in a DiffServ Domain

By default, the mappings in a DiffServ domain are as follows:

Table 1 lists the mappings from 802.1p priorities to PHBs and colors.
Table 2 lists the mappings from DSCP priorities to PHBs and colors.
Table 3 lists the mappings from EXP priorities in MPLS packets to PHBs and colors.

The mappings from interface priorities to PHBs and colors are similar to the mappings from 802.1p priorities to PHBs and colors. Colors of packets are only used to determine whether to drop packets and do not affect mappings between internal priorities and queues.

Only the S5720-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, S5732-H, S6720-EI, S6720-HI, S6720S-EI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S support the mappings from EXP priorities to PHBs and colors.

Mapping Between CoS Values and Interface Queue Indexes

By default, internal priorities (CoS of packets) and interface queues are mapped on a one-to-one basis. During deployment, you may need to change the mappings between CoS values and queues or map different CoS values to the same queue to avoid overburdening the device buffer. The device sends packets to different interface queues based on the internal priorities, and performs traffic shaping, congestion avoidance, and queue scheduling for the queues.

Table 4 lists the mappings between internal priorities and queues supported by the S5720-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, S5732-H, S6720-EI, S6720-HI, S6720S-EI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S.

Mapping from CoS Values (PHBs) and Colors to Priorities in the Outbound Direction in the DiffServ Domain

By default, the mappings in a DiffServ domain are as follows:

Table 5 lists the mappings from PHBs and colors to 802.1p priorities.
Table 6 lists the mappings from PHBs and colors to DSCP priorities.
Table 7 lists the mappings from PHBs and colors to EXP priorities in MPLS packets.

The mappings from interface priorities to PHBs and colors are similar to the mappings from 802.1p priorities to PHBs and colors. Colors of packets are only used to determine whether to drop packets and do not affect mappings between internal priorities and queues.

Only the S5720-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, S5732-H, S6720-EI, S6720-HI, S6720S-EI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S support the mappings from EXP priorities to PHBs and colors.
