[nsp] QoS tricks redux

[Christopher J. Wolff]

Dimitri,

Thank you for the response.  Based on your conclusion I need to find a
different mechanism for managing inbound and outbound traffic since there is
no way to combine traffic prioritization with inbound and outbound policing
in one service policy.  Since I can't have multiple service policies on one
interface, I'm back to CAR which is awful.

Chris,

Inbound "prioritisation" isn't possible, because you are busy receiving bits
from the wire and cannot tell the wire which bits are of interest and which
are not - they (bits) already are in the order that the sending device put
them in. You can only classify or drop on inbound, while you're trying to do
priority queueing and shaping.
