Hello Roger,

nitpick: s/superseeds/supersedes

Also, according to:
https://standards.ieee.org/ieee/802.1D/3387/
IEEE 802.1D-2004 is superseded by 802.1Q-2014, so:
s/IEEE802.1Q-2004/IEEE802.1Q-2014/g

In IEEE802.1Q-2014, the tables are:
Table I-2—Traffic type acronyms
Table I-3—Defining traffic types

Since links might change, it might be better to drop this and quote section
I.4 Traffic types and priority values of IEEE802.1Q-2014 which states:

"0 is thus used both for default priority and for Best Effort, and
Background is associated with a priority value of 1. This means that the
value 1 effectively communicates a lower priority than 0."
