Girish,

The document organization is a little different between the IETF and DMTF.
While the classes for filtering on fields in the packet headers are indeed
in PCIMe, the classes for the datapath elements themselves are in a
different document: QDDIM -
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-policy-qos-device-info-model-08.txt

I believe that this document is going to be taken forward to the IESG some
time soon - but Bert will have to tell us exactly what its status is.

Bob

THe latest DMTF CIM version 2.7 has the schema for diffserv under QoS

http://www.dmtf.org/standards/documents/CIM/CIM_Schema27/mofs/271/CIM_Network27.zip

Does PCIMe needs to cover that ?
Are the diffserv parameters like Classifier,Meter,Dropper ,Schedulers and
Markers have been defined in PCIMe?

The Traffic descriptors are already covered for IP Filter (and 802.11
priority) in PCIMe.

How PCIMe will refer to DMTF CIM QoS standards ?


Thanx
