Hi,
i know this is offtopic but i didnt know where else to ask.
i understand that the EXP bits in MPLS are used to provide DSCP
functionality(Diffserv) for EXp inferred LSP's in MPLS.
1. i want to know how the DSCP bits are mapped to the EXP bits ?
2. Further, since the DSCP ( pow(2,8) = 256 combinations ) is 8 bits and
provides 22 different PHB's(or roughly 7 different classes),
and the EXP is just 3 bits and therefore can provide only upto 8
different classes, wouldnt there be loss of info while mapping DSCP->EXP ?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Warm Regards
nerd
