Hi all,
Does anybody know a detailed explanation on how the following parameters in a QoS profile interact with the CAPWAP encapsulated packet as a whole? The documentation is a bit sparse about them.
Specifically I am interested at the following junction point marked in red:
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
These options are there to address specific issue.
In older AireOS codes (I think prior to 7.4) when you enable WMM on your WLAN (say platinum) and your wireless frames comes from a non-WMM (no UP value) client, then WLC will mark them to WLAN configured QoS profile value by default (in this case to platinum).
To change that behaviour Unicast/Multicast default behaviour settings added in confiugration.
Maximum priority is for the capped value (ie Platinum - EF, Gold - AF41, etc)
Note that since 8.0 onward QoS behavior changed and you can trust DSCP even on WLC connected switchports (so no QoS profile required). See below for detail explaination.
