In order to understand what is Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), one
must first be familiarized with the Differentiated Services model.
Differentiated Services (Diffserv) is a Class of Service (CoS) model that en-
hances best-effort Internet services by differentiating traffic by users, service
requirements and other criteria. Packets are specifically marked, allowing net-
work nodes to provide different levels of service, as appropriate for voice calls,
video playback or other delay-sensitive applications, via priority queuing or
bandwidth allocation, or by choosing dedicated routes for specific traffic flows.
