Description
Set the loss priority of incoming packets, which governs the likelihood of the system dropping packets in the event of congestion. For example, to ensure delivery of critical traffic, you might want to set the loss priority of non-critical flows to high or medium-high to intentionally sacrifice those packets in favor of the preferred traffic whenever there is contention of resources.
Options
| high | Highest probability of being dropped at times of congestion |
| medium-high | Second highest probability of being dropped at times of congestion |
| medium-low | Third highest probability of being dropped at times of congestion |
| low | Lowest probability of being dropped at times of congestion |
