NOTE:

The mappings described in this section apply to both directions unless otherwise specified.

The priority used for colored priority mapping table lookup depends on the configuration of trusted
priority on the port and the priority re-marking result.

IP precedence and DSCP values

Figure 20 ToS and DS fields

As shown in

Figure 20

, the ToS field in the IP header contains 8 bits. The first 3 bits (0 to 2) represent IP

precedence from 0 to 7. According to RFC 2474, the ToS field is redefined as the differentiated services
(DS) field, where a DSCP value is represented by the first 6 bits (0 to 5) and is in the range 0 to 63. The

remaining 2 bits (6 and 7) are reserved.
