Mapping to internalclassThe RM module maps packets to the an internal class depending on ATM QoS, VLAN 
priority or DSCP settings. The table below shows the relation between these 
settings. Once the mapping to the internal classes has been completed the packet 
goes through a number of processes like firewall, nat etc. Finally once the packet is 
ready for output it will be put in one of the 6 queues based upon its internal class.
