Hi ,

My notes say this, Would like to confirm, whether this is same for
all platforms. (3550 & 2600)

Mark & shape on (inbound/outbound) same policy is different than mark
inbound & shape outbound ?

Option 1:
-------------
Mark and apply QoS action in the same policy. => QoS actions use the
original value of the packet when it is commonly classified. The
packet will carry the new value when it is transmitted, and the next
router uses the new value.

Option 2:
-----------
Mark with inbound policy and apply QoS action with outbound policy.
=> QoS actions use the new or remarked value when classifying
traffic against the outbound policy.
