Mapping IP Precedence

The Type of Service (ToS) octet in the IPv4 header includes three precedence
bits defining eight different priority levels ranging from highest priority for network
control packets to lowest priority for routine traffic. The default IP Precedence
values are mapped one-to-one to Class of Service values (i.e., Precedence value
0 maps to CoS value 0, and so forth). Bits 6 and 7 are used for network control,
and the other bits for various application types. ToS bits are defined in the
following table.
