Access Control List 

(ACL)

ACLs can limit network traffic and restrict access to certain users or devices by 
checking each packet for certain IP or MAC (i.e., Layer 2) information.

Boot Protocol 

(BOOTP)

BOOTP

 is 

used to provide bootup information for network devices, including IP 

address information, the address of the TFTP server that contains the devices 
system files, and the name of the boot file.

Class of Service 

(CoS)

CoS is supported by prioritizing packets based on the required level of service, and 
then placing them in the appropriate output queue. Data is transmitted from the 
queues using weighted round-robin service to enforce priority service and prevent 
blockage of lower-level queues. Priority may be set according to the port default, 
the packet’s priority bit (in the VLAN tag), TCP/UDP port number, IP Precedence 
bit, or DSCP priority bit.

Differentiated Services

 (DiffServ)

DiffServ provides quality of service on large networks by employing a well-defined 
set of building blocks from which a variety of aggregate forwarding behaviors may 
be built. Each packet carries information (DS byte) used by each hop to give it a 
particular forwarding treatment, or per-hop behavior, at each network node. 
DiffServ

 

allocates different levels of service to users on the network with 

mechanisms such as traffic meters, shapers/droppers, packet markers at the 
boundaries of the network.

Differentiated Services Code Point Service 

(DSCP)

DSCP uses a six-bit tag to provide for up to 64 different forwarding behaviors. 
Based on network policies, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different 
kinds of forwarding. The DSCP bits are mapped to the Class of Service categories, 
and then into the output queues.
