The DSCP is six bits wide, allowing coding for up to 64 different

forwarding behaviors. The DSCP retains backward compatibility with

the three precedence bits so that non-DSCP compliant devices will not

conflict with the DSCP mapping. Based on network policies, different

kinds of traffic can be marked for different kinds of forwarding.

DSCP priority values are mapped to default Class of Service values

according to recommendations in the IEEE 802.1p standard, and then

subsequently mapped to the eight hardware priority queues. The

default mapping is defined in the following table. Note that all the DSCP

values that are not specified are mapped to CoS value 0.
