I've been debating whether the TOS header information must be left
untouched by an ISP, or if it's ok to zero/(or modify) it for internet
traffic. Does anyone know of a BCP that touches on this?
My thoughts was otherwise to zero TOS information incoming on IXes,
transits and incoming from customers, question is if customers expect this
to be transparent or not.
Reading <http://www.sanog.org/resources/sanog4-kaulgud-qos-tutorial.pdf>
it looks like in the Diffserv terminology, it's ok to do whatever one
would want.
Any feedback appreciated.
