Priority
QoS Mode – DSCP
In the late 1990s, the IETF redefined the meaning of the 8-bit SERVICE TYPE field to
accommodate a set of differentiated services (DS). Under the differentiated services
interpretation, the first six bits comprise a codepoint, which is sometimes abbreviated
DSCP, and the last two bits are left unused. DSCP can form total 64 (0~63) kinds of
Traffic Class based on the arrangement of 6-bit field in DSCP of the IP packet. In the
switch, user is allowed to set up these 64 kinds of Class that belong to any of queue (low,
normal, medium, high).
