DSCP-to-CoS remapping is optional. Newer network audit program perform QoS based on internal DSCP values that are generated either by trusted DSCP markings or by trusted CoS markings (coupled with CoS-to-DSCP mappings). In the case of legacy switches at the branch that perform QoS strictly by preset CoS values, CoS might need to be remapped on the branch router's LAN edge.
Enhanced packet marking (Cisco IOS Release 12.2[13]T or higher) is the optimal tool for resetting CoS values because it uses a table. In this manner, a default DSCP-to-CoS mapping can be used without having to configure explicitly a class-based marking policy that matches every class and performs a corresponding set cos function.
