Re: BCP regarding TOS transparancy for internet traffic

Overwriting the tos flags is not "best effort", it is "degraded service"

So how do you propose to control the use of TOS flags within a network? If
I have an application that receives specific treatment because of its TOS
flags, I need to prevent non-compliant traffic from using this TOS flag at
other ingress points. This requires either dropping that traffic or
rewriting the flag.
