5-24 Network Design Considerations
7.5 Diffserv (Differentiated Service)
Differentiated Services (Diffserv) uses the ToS field in an IP header. Diffserv is
now commonly used instead of IP Precedence (refer to
7.4 IP Precedence on
page 5-23 ) as it provides greater flexibility. This method uses six bits of the ToS
field to determine the priority – which provides up to 64 possible values. The
combination of binary digits is known as the Diffserv Codepoint (DSCP).
The example below shows an Ethernet Frame containing one RTP (speech)
packet. The IP Packet has the ToS field set to 101000 (binary) which is the
equivalent of Class Selector 5. The router(s) in this network should be
programmed to prioritize based on CS5.
