QoS QoS requirements are different for various data types such as streaming video or music, voice and raw data. To provide higher QoS for streaming data, priority levels can be set using tags at the beginning of data frames. Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) 802. 1p priority tags on Ethernet frames are used to specify 8 (0 7) levels of `user priority'. The 200M Powerline AV to Fast Ethernet Adapter allows 4 levels of Channel Access Priority (CAP (0 3)). Therefore, the 8 levels of VLAN Ethernet tags must be mapped to the 4 levels of CAP priority, where CAP 3 is the highest priority and CAP 0 is the lowest.
