Maximus, from "IP QoS" book:
Classifier: The classifier selects a packet in a traffic stream based on the content of some portion of the packet header. The most common way to classify traffic is based on the DSCP field, but you can classify traffic based on the other fields in the packet header. This function identifies a packet's traffic class. Marker: This function helps write/rewrite the DSCP field of a packet based on its traffic class. Regards, Persio ----- Original Message ----- From: """B.J.
