Can you add the ability to set 802.1p and DSCP tagging on BWM rules?

    Hi @Matthew,

    May I know if your USG FLEX H series has upgraded to the latest firmware version?

    If so, please use the priority option for this requirement. This is based on IEEE 802.1p standard. Below is the example.

    I am on 1.32.0.

    Does the router tag traffic with the 802.1p priority or is it for internal use within the router only?

    I'm looking for the ability to tag traffic with 802.1p CoS and DSCP tagging so that other network devices can coordinate/respect bandwidth management.

    Yeah that's what I'm looking for on the H series. On the Flex/USG series, the Priority in Bandwidth Shaping was used internally in the router while the DSCP and 802.1p actually tagged the traffic for other network devices (in the LAN and at the ISP).

    I was assuming the Priority in the H series was only used internally like the Flex/USG Bandwidth Shaping priority and was not doing 802.1p CoS tagging.
