Routing Policy question with Type of Service

Hello,

 

I'm trying to configure a Routing Policy that takes traffic from an interface and forwards through a specified interface. My question is, how do you find the values to set in the Type of Service Bit Pattern and Bit Mask?

 

I could be wrong but I think this relates to CoS, DSCP, IPP, etc. configurations.

 

From what I can find ToS HEX value has to be defined in the 0xHH format where HH is HEX value, but which do I use, Bit pattern or Bit mask? I found the attached chart during my research, which to me, suggests to leave Bit Pattern to default 0x00 and set Bit Mask to 0xB8 (for high performance Voice traffic).

 

However, following traditional TOS Bit manipulation, which for Minimum Delay and Maximum Reliability, I would use 0x14 but do I use that value as the Bit mask, Bit pattern or both?

 

Other suggestions

 

Thanks for your help!
