ip_tos
Returns the ToS level of a packet.
SYNOPSIS
ip_tos (IP_TOS)?
DESCRIPTION
Returns the ToS level of a packet. The Type of Service (ToS) standard is a means by which network equipment
can identify and treat traffic differently based on an identifier. As traffic enters the site, the BIG-IP
system can apply a rule that sends the traffic to different pools of servers based on the ToS level within a
packet. This is a BIG-IP version 4.X variable, provided for backward-compatibility. You can use the
equivalent 9.X command IP::tos instead.
