Chapter 12 Policy and Static Routes DSCP Marking and Per-Hop Behavior DiffServ defines a new DS (Differentiated Services) field to replace the Type of Service (TOS) field in the IP header. The DS field contains a 2-bit unused field and a 6-bit DSCP field which can define up to 64 service levels. The following figure illustrates the DS field. DSCP (6 bits) Unused (2 bits) DSCP is backward compatible with the three precedence bits in the ToS octet so that non-DiffServ compliant, ToS-enabled network device will not conflict with the DSCP mapping. The DSCP value determines the forwarding behavior, the PHB (Per-Hop Behavior), that each packet gets across the DiffServ network. Based on the marking rule, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different kinds of forwarding. Resources can then be allocated according to the DSCP values and the configured policies. Finding Out More • See Section 12.4 on page 212 for more background information on policy routing. 12.2 Policy Route Screen Click Configuration > Network > Routing to open the Policy Route screen. Use this screen to see the configured policy routes. A policy route defines the matching criteria and the action to take when a packet meets the criteria. The action is taken only when all the criteria are met. The criteria can include the user name, source address and incoming interface, destination address, schedule, IP protocol (ICMP, UDP, TCP, etc.) and port. The actions that can be taken include: • Routing the packet to a different gateway, outgoing interface, or trunk. IPPR follows the existing packet filtering facility of RAS in style and in implementation. Figure 134 Configuration > Network > Routing > Policy Route UAG Series User's Guide 205
