2.3.4.1 Traffic Class

Traffic Class enables you to set your Traffic Class and corresponding register bits, as shown in Table 2-5. The traffic class is required by the PCI Express packet header. Its value determines the relative priority of a given transaction as it traverses the PCIe link. You can use the Traffic Class value to create a priority scheme for different packets.
