------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

After [discussion|https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/4483/], investigation and more testing I think that the gain is much less then the impact.

> Asterisk provides a way to set tos and cos fields in IP headers. But as stated in documentation:
> =======
> Since IAX connections combine signalling, audio, and video into one UDP
> stream, it is not possible to set the TOS separately for the different
> types of traffic
> =======
> So the packet priority is assigned to all packets sent from IAX socket; Which minimizes the benefit of having packet priority.
> If there are separate settings for trunk packets only, users can increase
> priority of signaling only; to ensure that control packets *only* get better chance
> than other packets.
> I have working patch for this feature, will attach it.
