Trust Boundaries
The trust boundary is enforced by the incoming interface as follows:
• All Fibre Channel and virtual Fibre Channel interfaces are automatically classified into the FCoE system
• By default, all Ethernet interfaces are trusted interfaces.The 802.1p CoS and DSCP are preserved unless
• Any packet that is not tagged with an 802.1p CoS value is classified into the default drop system class.
• You can override the default untagged CoS value for an Ethernet interface or port channel.
• You can override the default untagged CoS value for an Ethernet interface or a port channel interface
After the system applies the untagged CoS value, QoS functions the same as for a packet that entered the
system tagged with the CoS value.

class.
the marking is configured. There is no default CoS to queue and DSCP to queue mapping. You can
define and apply a policy to create these mappings. By default, without a user defined policy, all traffic
is assigned to the default queue.
If the untagged packet is sent over a trunk, it is tagged with the default untagged CoS value, which is
zero.
