> It appears that setting tos in a transport actually sets the DSCP field in the IP header for SIP packets whereas setting tos_audio in an endpoint sets the old tos field in the IP header for RTP packets.
> Example...
> {code}
> [sometransport]
> type=transport
> tos=12
> {code}
> results in 
> {code}
> Differentiated Services Field: 0x30 (DSCP 0x0c: Assured Forwarding 12; ECN: 0x00: Not-ECT (Not ECN-Capable Transport))
> {code}
> Note that the DSCP is set to 0x0c (12 dec)
> BUT
> {code}
> [someendpoint]
> type=endpoint
> tos_audio=12
> {code}
> results in
> {code}
> Differentiated Services Field: 0x0c (DSCP 0x03: Unknown DSCP; ECN: 0x00: Not-ECT (Not ECN-Capable Transport))
> {code}
> Note that in this case, the entire field is set to 0x0c (12 dec) and the DSCP is set to an unknown DSCP.
> Ideally the name of the parameter should match the actual field set.  If it's 'tos' then it should set the old-style tos field in the IP header.  If it's 'dscp' it should set the new-style DSCP field in the IP header.
> I vote for changing them both to dscp and having them set the new-style DSCP header field.
