Hi Michael,
Maybe because a shake of task 8.2 + 8.3 :)
If you look at this output

You can see that CS5, CS6 and CS7 has the maximum Average Queue Min and
Max Values to start dropping packets, so setting the DSCP to CS5 or CS6
or CS7 or EF would be correct, since the default traffic is DSCP 0 20/40
to start dropping. (why they took CS5, just because it look correct
setting the value to 5 in IPP, the 6 and 7 are for Routing and Keepalive
messages (But since this is not a best practice test I would assume that
it could be also correct setting the flow for that server to 6 o 7)
Now why not 63, well I think this is because, there is no predefined Min
and Max Drop Values for the average Q, so you would have to manually
configure those values per that number (PHB)

Subject: Question about setting DSCP value (IEWB Lab 20, question 8.3)
Hi Group,
This question is asking us to set DSCP value on certain HTTP traffic so
that "random-detect dscp-based" WRED will be least likely to drop HTTP
traffic
Does anyone know the reason why the solution guide is setting the DSCP
to cs5 instead of value 63 ?
Thanks a lot
