Thanks for the reply. A small update.
I found out if I don't set any port speed limit on the Netgear switch, then the PCP prioritization works for the VLAN tagged stream. However, as soon as I limit the egress port on Netgear from the default 1Gbps to 100Mbps (which I need for my experiments), then the prioritization effect is gone. The two UDP streams start sharing the bandwidth equally again.
In short, the port speed limit config overwrites the previous queue mapping config, although the PCP value is still set to 5.
It would be really helpful if the issue can be resolved.

No idea the simple configureable core does offer this combination. YeZ please.

I believe the PCP (Priority Code Point) field you are referring to is applicable to only VLAN ... That Netgear switch does support vlans.
