Subject: CBWFQ and IP precedence question

Hi all,

  Is it true that in CBWFQ, the IP precedence of a packet does not have
a direct effect on the weighting of conversation queues? That's how Im
understanding the doc on CBWFQ:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios121/121cgcr/
qos_c
//qcprt2/xtocid16

As I understand it IP precedence is relevant only in the flow
differentiation step. Queues are weighed explicitly through the
bandwidth command.

But then at the near the end of the section the author goes on to say:
"CBWFQ uses the weights assigned to the queued packets to ensure that
the class queue is serviced fairly."

Is the guy talking about IP precedence weight or bandwidth-assigned
weight?

Thanks,
   Joe
