\subsubsection{Introduction}
Asterisk support different QoS settings on application level on various protocol
on any of signaling and media. Type of Service (TOS) byte can be set on
outgoing IP packets for various protocols. The TOS byte is used by the network
to provide some level of Quality of Service (QoS) even if the network is
congested with other traffic.
Also asterisk running on Linux can set 802.1p CoS marks in VLAN packets for all
used VoIP protocols. It is useful when you are working in switched environment.
In fact asterisk only set priority for Linux socket. For mapping this priority
Asterisk supports different QoS settings at the application level for various
protocols on both signaling and media. The Type of Service (TOS) byte can be
set on outgoing IP packets for various protocols. The TOS byte is used by the
network to provide some level of Quality of Service (QoS) even if the network
is congested with other traffic.
Asterisk running on Linux can also set 802.1p CoS marks in VLAN packets for the
VoIP protocols it uses. This is useful when working in a switched environment.
In fact Asterisk only set priority for Linux socket. For mapping this priority
and VLAN CoS mark you need to use this command:
\begin{verbatim}
vconfig set_egress_map [vlan-device] [skb-priority] [vlan-qos]
\end{verbatim}
In table behind shown all voice channels and other modules of asterisk, that
support QoS settings for network traffic and type of traffic which can have
QoS settings.
The table below shows all VoIP channel drivers and other Asterisk modules that
support QoS settings for network traffic. It also shows the type(s) of
traffic for which each module can support setting QoS settings.

\subsubsection{IP TOS values}
The allowable values for any of the tos* parameters are:
CS0, CS1, CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS6, CS7, AF11, AF12, AF13, AF21, AF22, AF23,
AF31, AF32, AF33, AF41, AF42, AF43 and ef (expedited forwarding),
The tos* parameters also take numeric values.
Note, that on Linux system you can use ef value in case your asterisk is running
from a user other then root only when you have compiled asterisk with libcap.
Note that on a Linux system, Asterisk must be compiled with libcap in order to
use the ef tos setting if Asterisk is not run as root.
The lowdelay, throughput, reliability, mincost, and none values are removed
The lowdelay, throughput, reliability, mincost, and none values have been removed
in current releases.
\subsubsection{802.1p CoS values}
As far as 802.1p uses 3 bites from VLAN header, there are parameter can take
integer values from 0 to 7.
Because 802.1p uses 3 bits of the VLAN header, this parameter can take integer
values from 0 to 7.

\subsubsection{SIP}
In sip.conf, there are three parameters that control the TOS settings:
In sip.conf, there are four parameters that control the TOS settings:
"tos\_sip", "tos\_audio", "tos\_video" and "tos\_text". tos\_sip controls
what TOS SIP call signaling packets are set to. tos\_audio, tos\_video
and tos\_text controls what TOS RTP audio, video or text accordingly
packets are set to.
and tos\_text control what TOS values are used for RTP audio, video, and text
packets, respectively.
There are four parameters to control 802.1p CoS: "cos\_sip", "cos\_audio",
"cos\_video" and "cos\_text". It behavior the same as written above.
