Re: APIs for diffserv

And finally on Win32 platforms, the code snippet looks like the following
(see the platform SDK):
   int tos, tos_len;
   tos_len = sizeof(tos);

   if (getsockopt(sock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TOS, (char *)&tos,
                  &tos_len) == SOCKET_ERROR)
       printf("\nWarning: TCPIP stack does not support the "
              "IP_TOS option - %d\n", WSAGetLastError());

   if (setsockopt(sock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TOS, (char *)&tos,
                  tos_len) == SOCKET_ERROR)
      printf("\nWarning: Fail to set TOS value: error - %d",
             WSAGetLastError());

You can also modify the following key in the Registry Editor to change the
TOS value set in the header of outgoing IP packets:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\
   Value Name: DefaultTOS
   Value Type: REG_DWORD
   Valid Range: 0x00, 0x02, 0x04, 0x08, 0x10Regards, Andreas
