Hello, I'm still working with MPLS over WiFi. I'm trying to enable wireless QoS extensions (802.11e) together with MPLS, but it seems not to succeed in classifying the flows once they are encapsulated in MPLS. I try to explain: 802.11e does a matching between the DSCP field of IP header and a class (Access Category) . When I send a flow with MPLS, if I sniff the traffic with wireshark I can see the DSCP field correctly written, but the wireless QoS information do not match with the right class. Otherwise, if I send the same flow without MPLS, everything works fine. I'd like to understand why, can anybody help me? Thanks a lot, Luca |
