Classification Comparisons
Table 24-1 shows suggested IP DSCP, IP precedence, and CoS values for typical traffic types.
Table 24-1 Typical Traffic Classifications
Traffic Type
DSCP
per-hop
DSCP
(decimal)
IP
Precedence CoS
Voice-bearer—traffic in a priority queue or the queue with the
highest service weight and lowest drop priority.
EF 46 5 5
Voice control—signalling traffic, related to call setup, from a
voice gateway or a voice application server.
AF31 26 3 3
Video conferencing—in most networks, video conferencing
over IP has similar loss, delay, and delay variation requirements
as voice over IP traffic.
AF41 34 4 4
Streaming video—relatively high bandwidth applications with a
high tolerance for loss, delay, and delay variation. Usually
considered more important than regular background
applications such as e-mail and web browsing.
AF13 14 1 1
Mission critical date (gold data)—delay-sensitive applications
critical to the operation of an enterprise.
