Quality of Service (QoS)
The CVX 1800 and CVX 600 sup-

The QoS strategy for the CVX
Multi-Service
Access Switches includes:
• Treating packets from IPSec
with priority
• Participating in the Differentiated
Services (IETF) architecture
(DiffServ), by setting the config-
ured/messaged TOS bits in the
corresponding dial session IP
header
– Allowing switch/routing deci-
sions to be made on the
tagged packet by downstream
frame relay or ATM devices
