Precedence
Priority level of the data stream. The three most significant bits of the
TOS byte are priority bits used to set precedence for priority queuing.
When you enable TOS, you can set the three most significant bits to
one of the following values (most significant bit first):
•
000—Normal priority
•
001—Priority level 1
•
010—Priority level 2
•
011—Priority level 3
•
100—Priority level 4
•
101—Priority level 5
•
110—Priority level 6
•
111—Priority level 7 (the highest priority)
TOS
Type of Service of the data stream. When TOS is enabled, you can set
TOS to one of the following values:
•
Normal—Normal service
•
Cost—Minimize monetary cost
•
Reliability—Maximize reliability
•
Throughput—Maximize throughput
•
Latency—Minimize delay
Note:
The four bits adjacent to the most significant bits of the TOS
byte specify Type of Service of the data stream.
Apply To
Direction in which the MAX supports TOS. If you set Apply To to
Input, the MAX sets TOS bits in packets received on the interface. If
you set Apply To to Output, the MAX sets TOS bits in outbound
packets. If you set Apply To to Both, the MAX set TOS bits for
incoming and outgoing packets.
