Priority: The quality of service (QoS) as defined in the IEEE 802. 1 p standard
for the VLAN traffic. VLAN Ethernet frames contain a three-bit priority tag
ranging from 0 to 7 (where 0 is best effort and 7 is network-critical traffic).
•
Label: A text description for the VLAN (for example, "Data," "Voice," "Video,"
and so on). This description is used solely as a reference within the NSS
interface and does not affect its operation.
Configuring a VLAN to connect to the NSS depends if it is trunk-based or port-
based. To configure a trunk-based VLAN, follow the steps described next. To
configure a port-based VLAN, configure the switch to assign the port to which the
NSS is connected to the desired VLAN. In this case, no NSS configuration changes
are required.

From the Manager Menu, click Network
The VLAN Configuration page appears.
