    v4 v5  
    1 '''Scope''' 
     1'''QoS Technologies''' 
    22 QoS settings are available for both Layer 2 and Layer 3 of TCP/IP protocols: 
    33 
     
    2323 '''Linux''' 
    2424 
    25  Ethernet 802.1p tagging is available via SO_PRIORITY option. DSCP is available via IP TOS option. Both are settable via {{{setsockopt()}}}. WMM is not known to be available. 
     25 DSCP is available via IP TOS option.  
     26 
     27 Ethernet 802.1p tagging is done by setting {{{setsockopt(SO_PRIORITY)}}} option of the socket, then with the {{{set_egress_map option}}} of the {{{vconfig utility}}} to convert this to set vlan-qos field of the packet.  
     28 
     29 WMM is not known to be available. 
    2630 
    2731 '''Windows''' 
     
    4953 Based on the above, the following API is proposed. 
    5054 
    51  Declare the following "standard" traffic classes. 
     55 Declare the following "standard" traffic types.

     65 } pj_qos_type; 
    6166 }}} 
    6267 
    63  The traffic classes above will determine how the Layer 2 and 3 QoS settings will be used. As general guidelines, the mapping between the classes above to the corresponding Layer 2 and 3 settings are as follows: 
     68 The traffic classes above will determine how the Layer 2 and 3 QoS settings will be used. The mapping between the classes above to the corresponding Layer 2 and 3 settings are as follows:

    84  The API will set the traffic type according to the DSCP class, for '''both''' Layer 2 and Layer 3 QoS setting, where it's available. If any of the layer QoS is not settable, the API will silently ignore it. If '''both''' layers are not setable, the API will return error.
