DiffServ for VoIP Configuration Example
One of the most valuable uses of DiffServ is to support Voice over IP (VoIP). VoIP traffic is inherently
time-sensitive: for a network to provide acceptable service, a guaranteed transmission rate is vital. This
example shows one way to provide the necessary quality of service: how to set up a class for UDP traffic,
have that traffic marked on the inbound side, and then expedite the traffic on the outbound side. The
configuration script is for Router 1 in the accompanying diagram: a similar script should be applied to
Router 2.
