4.9.3 TOS/DSCP 
TOS/DSCP priority is obtained through a 6-bit Type-of-Service (TOS) or Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP) to 
3-bit priority mapping. 
 
The Type of Service (TOS) octet in the IPv4 header is divided into three parts; Precedence (3 bits), TOS (4 bits), and MBZ 
(1 bit). The Precedence bits indicate the importance of a packet, whereas the TOS bits indicate how the network should 
make tradeoffs between throughput, delay, reliability, and cost (as defined in RFC 1394). The MBZ bit (for “must be zero”) is 
currently unused and is either set to zero or just ignored.

The four TOS bits provide 15 different priority values, however only five values have a defined meaning.   
 
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.
