I don't know.  It both:

1. Looks like it's for SIP only (so not a global dial-peer solution)
2. Looks like it's mapping Resource Priority Headers (RPH) to DSCP values,
as opposed to setting DSCP values directly

I have no idea what RHP at this time, though I see there is a whole RFC on
the topic I could read.  However, if someone has a summary of what it is,
that would be appreciated.
