MPLS QoS:

Packets carry traffic at Layer 3.
Frames carry traffic at Layer 2. Layer 2 frames carry Layer 3 packets.
Labels are prioritization values carried in Layer 3 packets and Layer 2 frames:
–
Layer 2 class of service (CoS) values, which range between zero for low priority and seven for
high priority:
Layer 2 Inter-Switch Link (ISL) frame headers have a 1-byte User field that carries an IEEE
802.1p CoS value in the three least significant bits.
Layer 2 802.1Q frame headers have a 2-byte Tag Control Information field that carries the CoS
value in the three most significant bits, which are called the User Priority bits.
Other frame types cannot carry Layer 2 CoS values.
