[SM] Mmmh, would that likely be DSCP decimal 1, aka LE? Or someone mapping e.g. 
a 3bit VLAN priority PCP directly onto the TOS field? What puzzles me is that 
from the same IPv6 I got one more data flow, 182 MB using ECT(0) and ECN... 
odd...

[SM] In retrospect re-dedicating bits out of an already used header field might 
have been a bit optimistic....
