             Summary: TOS (DSCP) 
                 Key: TS-2644
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2644
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Cache, Network
            Reporter: Faysal Banna


Hi Guys 
I wonder if it would be possible to have a plugin that we can assign TOS/DSCP bits to the objects that are being a cache HIT or maybe object type of video/audio. 
such a plugin would give us better performance and control on how to distribute the output of the cache towards clients. 
example : 
suppose i set traffic to clients each of different bandwidth. 
on a router on a link somewhere on some roof top building i can say this client can get miss object traffic of 512Kbit/s and 1Mbit/s of Hits from the cache. 
this way if this client is getting a cached object he would get it in 1Mbit/s while his non cached requests would be of 512Kbit/s 

hope whoever does this patch plugin takes into consideration the mime type or url of the object being retrieved maybe i want to set audio/video being cached or not to have 768Kbit/s while windows updates and android/iphone apps should take no more than 512kbit/s 

bear in mind that this has nothing to do with Origin servers throttling feature request. this is just client side feature set. 

much regards 
Faysal Banna
