Configuring Packet Loss Priority in SD-WAN Traffic Policies
Short answer
C Configures packet-loss-priority high in the traffic policy map.
Question
Key Takeaways
The trap is confusing the direction of priority change; you must explicitly set the value to 'high' in the policy-map class.
Learn how to configure packet loss priority from low to high in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN using traffic policies. Correct answer is C.
Common mistake: Choosing an option that sets priority to 'low' or 'medium', or misreading the XML structure for the set command.
Expert Analysis
The question asks for the configuration that changes packet loss priority from low to high. In Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN, this is managed via Traffic Policy (Data Policies) using a class-map and policy-map. The specific parameter is packet-loss-priority.
To change the priority from low to high, the configuration must explicitly set the value to high. The syntax within a policy-map class is:
set packet-loss-priority high
Option C shows a configuration snippet where the packet-loss-priority is set to high. This directly answers the question by assigning the 'high' priority level, which is higher than 'low'.
Option A likely sets it to 'low' or does not configure it correctly for this specific change. Option B might set it to 'medium'. Option D may have incorrect syntax or target the wrong component. The key is identifying the statement set packet-loss-priority high.
Exam Strategy
When asked about changing QoS parameters like DSCP or packet loss priority, look for the explicit 'set' command in the policy-map class section. Verify the value matches the requested state (e.g., 'high' vs 'low'). Do not assume default behavior; always check for the explicit configuration statement.
