Determining CoS Port-Type

Based on physical capability, all physical ports belong to one of two port-types. The importance of this port-type distinction lies in the resources available for transmit queue, inbound rate limiting, outbound rate limiting, and flood control CoS features. The nomenclature distinguishes the types as port type 0 for the S- K- and 7100-Series and port type 1 for the S- and K-Series.
