0=Best effort.

This may help you decide which priority to use. VOIP should be 5 or 6 depending on which table you believe. :D

Ahah, thank you. So its in accordance with the IEEE P802.1p standard. That makes sense.

I'll go with 5 and leave the other data as 0 :)

Thank you!

Looking at a capture of egress traffic from a 2860 I can see that the VLAN priority setting correlates to the 802.1p PCP field ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_P802.1p ).

So 0 is 'best effort', 1 is 'background', 2 is 'excellent effort' and so on.

It's just a shame they couldn't add that info to the manual... ;)
