Advanced QoS methods only affect the internal priority queue mapping for the 
Switch. The Switch does not modify the IEEE 802.1p value for the egress 
frames. 

You can configure the Switch to assign a IEEE 802.1p priority to packets based on the ingress 
(incoming) port of the packet. Select Port Based QoS in the QoS Enhancement Setting 
screen to view the following screen.

Weight

You can only configure the queue weights when Weighted Round Robin is selected. 

Bandwidth is divided across the different traffic queues according to their weights. 

Note: If you want to use Strict Priority but want to change the weights 

for the queues, configure them with Weighted Round Robin 
selected first and then change the scheduling method to Strict 
Priority.
