[Asterisk-Users] 802.1p , precedence and TOS

[Eugenio De Vena]

well tos is already set and working ( I debugged the packet in and out ) and
they work
but to and precedence work at layer 3 i.e. in the ip header so they are
considered by routers
and layer3 switches. I want the 802.1p switch to pass voice traffic
priorized on the lan not the wan.
The way to do this is at level 2 ( mac level ) . The only language switch
understand, because they do not
go at IP level ( at least 3com 3300 ... )
