Specify Outer GRE-tunnel DSCP priority

    Hi.

    Is it possible in any way to specify the DSCP value for the GRE packets going from the AP to the Controller?

    In this case I do not need to set the DSCP value for the traffic inside the tunnel, but the DSCP for the tunnel itself.

    That parameter ONLY sets the DSCP for heartbeats between the access point and the controller, not the data in the GRE tunnel.

    Thank you victorfabian, but that setting does not solve my issue.

    As cjoseph points out, that setting does nothing with the GRE data, only the GRE heartbeats.

    The AP should take the DSCP value in the packet from the client and slap that on the GRE packets.
