I would like to set IP TOS field to some desired value or is it possible to completely ignore the TOS value? I have observed that using different value of TOS affects fairness in b/w allocation in a pipe. So for that specific reason I would like to change the TOS of all IP pkts before it gets into the pipe. I think this is very common problem however I didn't find any useful information in google either. thanks, Bikrant
