ServiceCategories statement

This statement specifies the type of service that a flow of IP packets (for example, from a TCP connection or UDP data) should receive end-to-end as they traverse the network.

ServiceCategories can be repeated with each having a different name so that they can be referred to later. A ServiceCategories object requires ServicePolicyRules to complete the policy definition.

         ServiceCategories   s
         {
            SelectorTag    s     # Required tag for LDAP Search
            MaxRate        i     # Target rate for traffic in this service class
            MaxTokenBucket i     # The bucket depth
            OutgoingTOS    b     # TOS value of outbound traffic for this service class
            FlowServiceType   p  # Type of traffic

         }
