A small area of the [IP] header which referes to what kind of priorities this packet should be given. In [IPv4] you can say that this packet should:
* __minimise delay__: For ssh sessions for example
* __maximise throughput__: for ftp sessions for example (eg: an ftp over a highspeed satellite link would be great, but a ssh session would be horrible!)
* __maximise reliability__: for packets that should get there!
-* __minimise $cost$__: for things like [IRC] and UsenetNews
:)
+* __minimise $cost$__: for things like [IRC] and UseNet
