Hi, Can we consider adding priority attribute in VLanNetworkInterface schema as standard attribute?
Thanks, Mani

Can you give an example of what you'd want to see and what the definition of the property would be?

Hi Jeff, Please find the definition of priority as below from erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gorry/course/lan-pages/vlan.html“Priority : The first three bits of the TCI define user priority, giving eight (2^3 ) priority levels. The deafult value os 0, indicating normal treatment. IEEE 802.1P defines the operation for these 3 user priority bits (defined in the IEEE 802.1D standard).techlibrary.hpe.com/device_help/ProCurveJ9562A/conf/qualityofservice/VLAN_Priority.htmThe QoS VLAN Priority lets you assign a priority to outbound packets containing the specified VLAN-ID (VID). Packets containing the specified VID are marked with the priority level configured for the VID classifier. This 802.1 priority determines the outbound port queue to which the packet is sent. If the packet leaves the switch in a tagged VLAN, it carries the 802.1p priority with it to the next downstream device.Thanks, Mani

Thanks, we've checked some NIC implementations and this does appear to be supported by more than one vendor, so it's reasonable for us to add this.
We'll define this as an integer property "Priority" in the VLANNetworkInterface schema (and the single VLAN object), with a range of 0-7.
That definition is very straightforward, so it should be an easy addition.
Thanks for the feedback,
Jeff
