User Guide
Packets are assigned to classes on the outbound interface based on either a mark assigned to the packet, or
the Type of Service (ToS) field in the IP header. If the ToS field matches a defined class, the packet is allocated
to that class. Otherwise, it is allocated to any class that matches the mark assigned to the packet. If no class
matches the mark, the packet is assigned to the default class.
Marks are assigned to packets by traffic control rules that are based on a number of parameters, such as IP
address, port number, protocol, packet length, and more.
The two modes cannot be accessed simultaneously. Only the mode that is currently configured can be accessed.
