[c-nsp] IP precedence inside of a service policy

[Tantsura, Jeff]

Glen is right,
The packet will leave policy-map after first match and following action
in the class.

I too have pondered this. My conclusion is that service policies are not
recursive, so only one "class" clause is executed per packet.

However, you are allowed to have two service policies -- one on input
and one on output. So to re-work your example:

  class-map CS5
   match ip dscp cs5

  policy-map IN
   class TEST
    set ip dscp cs5
   class class-default
    set ip dscp default

  policy-map OUT
   class CS5
    bandwidth 10000
   class class-default
    fair-queue
    random-detect

I'm open to correction, as Cisco's documentation is rather poor, but
this seems to fit the DiffServ QoS model that the Modular QoS is trying
to implement.
