====== The correspondence between DSCP, priority, and class ======
:!: The DSCP priority (0-lowest) is inverse to the priority of classes in HTB policing (0-highest). Therefore if you need to mark packages for external platforms, you need to set class_order=1 and use the following table to get the correspondence between DSCP values and traffic classes in HTB. If you do not need to mark packages, then it is more convenient to use intuitive correspondence: dscp cs0<->htb class0 (at setting class_order=0 by default).

^ DSCP Name ^ Binary Value ^ Decimal Value ^ Priority ^ Policing Class ^ Policing class at setting class_order=1 ^

Priority is a subset of the DSCP field in the IP header. In cases of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.1p|VLAn/QinQ]] and [[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5462|MPLS]] it is a separate field
in a range of values 0..7. The settings indicate the full DSCP value, which is used in case of marking up IP traffic, and in other cases only priority is used.
