Hi Everyone,

I see that the standard practice on a switchport is to configure
"switchport priority extend cos 0" in order to allow the ip phone to
reset the cos value received from the PC to 0.

My question is how would a PC ever set a "CoS" value if the link
between the ip phone and the PC is not an 802.1q trunk ?

Can someone please help me understand this ? The only thing I can
think of is that the PC would somehow have to support an 802.1q trunk
to it, a trunk would have to be dynamically established between the
phone and PC. And, then the user would have to manipulate the CoS
value. Is this possible with a Cisco phone ?

If this is the only case this would work then you would think that
Cisco would document these pre-requisites.  Perhaps I am confused.

Please help ;-)
