I said "special switch": it is a switch with ethernet ports and voice ports, with the voice processor and its stack. So, I can program the "special switch" in order to set the TOS (layer 3) per port basis and the COS (layer 2) per port basis. What happens to my packet (or frames) when I connect this switch to a router (827 per adsl) or to a layer 3 catalyst for different design?

You can only set the CoS bit and the CoS will not be translated to a ToS on router unless you force it to in the configuration. ToS is a layer 3 function and CoS is a layer 2 function >From: "TP" >Reply-To: "TP" >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: read and not write TOS [7:36946] >Date: Fri, 1 Mar 2002 06:14:30 -0500 > >Dear group, >i have the following situation: >a "special" switch connected to a cisco router via ethernet interface. >This switch is enable to set TOS based on its ports. >I'd like to configure the router in order to have different queuing based >on >the TOS (two or three queues). >The router should read (and NOT write) the TOS and priorituze the traffic >with the higher TOS: is it possible?
