Aamir,

If you have the time, read RFC 791....

http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/98aug/I-D/draft-ietf-diffserv-precedence-00.
txt

http://rfc.net/rfc791.html

RFC 791 reserve IP precedence values 6 & 7 for control traffics like routing
protocols, etc.

  Hi there Godswill

  I see what you mean but why set-prec-transmit 5? I mean max value of Ip
precedenc is 7 right? So why use 5 here?

  thanks

    If there is no restriction or leading toward a particular solution, then
any
    of them should be fine. Rememeber that ip precedence over laps with the
    DSCP.

    So something like:

    ..... conform-action set-dscp-transmit 46 exceed-action set-dscp-transmit
46

    OR

    ..... conform-action set-prec-transmit 5 exceed-action set-prec-transmit
5

    Are good candidates, when in doubt do ask the proctor and do not forget to
    enable or confirm that 'ip cef' is enabled.

    HTH.
