Service Types

Service types are defined to allow a controller to specify different traffic management types on VSI messages, as shown in Tables A-2 through A-6. The specific service type mapping into hardware programming is left to the VSI slave and is transparent to the VSI master. The VSI master specifies a type of traffic using the service types defined.

Table A-2. VSI Special Service Types

Type	Name	Description
0x0000	Null	No type is needed. Use for reservation without bandwidth only.
0x0001	Default	Use the default switch type.
0x0002	Signaling	Signaling for network topology, and so on.
0x0003 through 0x00FF	Reserved	Currently unused.

NOTE

Previously, the DiffServ Class Selectors service types were called MPLS COS. For example, the old traffic type MPLS COS 0 is now called DiffServ CS 0.
