Expedited Forwarding (EF) - The EF PHB defines a single DSCP designed for
simulating a private end-to-end pipeline across a DiffServ network. IP packets are
marked for high priority low-loss, low-latency, low-jitter, assured-bandwidth end
to end service through DS domains. This is recommended for use with VoIP traffic
as it addresses the factors that cause degradation in sound quality.
Class Selector (CS) - IP packets are marked with values partially backwards-
compatible with known current uses of IP precedence field. The packets marked
with higher values are given higher priority than those with lower values.

the X6004: minimize delay, maximize throughput, maximize
reliability or minimize cost.
•
DS (DiffServ) and then select the DSCP value to mark the outgoing
packets. You can choose: one of the AF (Assured Forwarding), EF
(Expedited Forwarding) or one of the CS (Class Selector) values.
