Quality of Service (QoS): Managing Bandwidth More Effectively
Using QoS Types To Configure QoS for Outbound Traffic
For example, suppose you want to configure the following two DSCP policies
for packets received with the indicated DSCPs.
1. Determine whether the DSCPs already have priority assignments, which
could indicate use by existing applications. This is not a problem as long
as the configured priorities are acceptable for all applications using the
same DSCP. (Refer to the “Note On Changing a Priority Setting” on page
6-35. Also, a DSCP must have a priority configured before you can assign
any QoS types to use it.)
