adopt the classification results from its upstream network or classify the packets again according to its own
criteria.
To provide differentiated services, traffic classes must be associated with certain traffic control actions or
resource allocation actions. What traffic control actions to adopt depends on the current phase and the
resources of the network. For example, CAR is adopted to police packets when they enter the network; GTS
is performed on packets when they flow out of the node; queue scheduling is performed when congestion
happens; congestion avoidance measures are taken when the congestion deteriorates.
Packet precedences
This section introduces IP precedence, ToS precedence, differentiated services codepoint (DSCP) values,
and 802.1p precedence.

b.
DS field and ToS bytes
As shown in b , the ToS field of the IP header contains eight bits: the first three bits (0 to 2) represent IP
precedence from 0 to 7; the subsequent four bits (3 to 6) represent a ToS value from 0 to 15. According to
RFC 2474, the ToS field of the IP header is redefined as the differentiated services (DS) field, where a DSCP
value is represented by the first six bits (0 to 5) and is in the range 0 to 63. The remaining two bits (6 and
7) are reserved.

In a network in the Diff-Serve model, traffic is grouped into the following four classes, and packets are
processed according to their DSCP values.
 Expedited Forwarding (EF) class: In this class, packets are forwarded regardless of link share of other
traffic. The class is suitable for preferential services requiring low delay, low packet loss, low jitter, and
high bandwidth.
