Most of the software routers regarding QoS studies use TOS (or DSCP).

Anyway, Damien do you think it would be easy to add something to control 
the DSCP?

I will explain in few words: usually an application label *ALL* the 
packets with the same TOS. In some scenarios, it is interesting to use 
different TOS depending on the packets, or measures, or bandwidth 
allocation.

The solution would be to add some hooks to permit to change the DSCP 
dynamically, do some measures or get some infos regarding the bitrate, etc.

If it's too difficult, do not spend time on this, it's just a wish list 
 with low industrial interest, more interesting for research ;)


Thank you!
