Brian,

I agree. I was little short of sleep when I wrote that, Sorry.

You're right in the statement that untagged IP traffic, and non-IP traffic
will be treated as IP Prec 0, but not that they will be dropped. The lower
the precedence value, the higher the probability of being dropped. This is
not to say that ANY traffic will be dropped, just that IP prec 7 has less
probability of being dropped than IP prec 0.
