Differentiated services (DiffServ) [RFC 3260] include
enhancements to IP to enable scalable service discrimination. IP packets are
classified and marked to receive a particular per-hop forwarding behavior on
nodes along their path using the field [DSFIELD]. Network resources are
allocated to traffic streams by service provisioning policies which govern how
traffic is marked and conditioned upon entry to a differentiated
services-capable network, and how that traffic is forwarded within that
network.
