GE-DS-242-PoE Managed Ethernet Switch User Manual
DiffServ Code Point (DSCP) - is the traffic prioritization bits within an IP header that are
encoded by certain applications and/or devices to indicate the level of service
required by the packet across a network. DSCP are defined in RFC2597 for classifying
traffic into different service classes. The Managed Switch extracts the codepoint
value of the DS field from IPv4 packets and identifies the priority of the incoming IP
packets based on the configured priority.

The DSCP is six bits wide, allowing coding for up to 64 different forwarding behaviors.
The DSCP retains backward compatibility with the three precedence bits so that non-
DSCP compliant, TOS-enabled devices, will not conflict with the DSCP mapping. Based
on network policies, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different kinds of
forwarding.
TOS/DSCP Configuration
The TOS/DSCP page provides fields for defining output queue to specific DSCP fields.
When TCP/IP's TOS/DSCP mode is applied, the Managed Switch recognizes TCP/IP
Differentiated Service Codepoint (DSCP) priority information from the DS-field defined
in RFC2474.
Enable TOS/DSCP for traffic classification and then the DSCP to priority mapping
column is configurable, as Figure 4-8 shows:
