+ * DSCP Pools and Codepoint Space Division:
+ *
+ * The Differentiated Services (Diffserv) architecture defines a method for
+ * classifying and managing network traffic using the DS field in IPv4 and IPv6
+ * packet headers. This field can carry one of 64 distinct DSCP (Differentiated
+ * Services Code Point) values, which are divided into three pools based on
+ * their Least Significant Bits (LSB) patterns and intended usage. Each pool has
+ * a specific registration procedure for assigning DSCP values:
+ *
+ * Pool 1 (Standards Action Pool):
+ * - Codepoint Space: xxxxx0
+ * This pool includes DSCP values ending in '0' (binary), allocated via
+ * Standards Action. It is intended for globally recognized traffic classes,
+ * ensuring interoperability across the internet. This pool encompasses
+ * well-known DSCP values such as CS0-CS7, AFxx, EF, and VOICE-ADMIT.
+ *
+ * Pool 2 (Experimental/Local Use Pool):
+ * - Codepoint Space: xxxx11
+ * Reserved for DSCP values ending in '11' (binary), this pool is designated
+ * for Experimental or Local Use. It allows for private or temporary traffic
+ * marking schemes not intended for standardized global use, facilitating
+ * testing and network-specific configurations without impacting
+ * interoperability.
+ *
+ * Pool 3 (Preferential Standardization Pool):
+ * - Codepoint Space: xxxx01
+ * Initially reserved for experimental or local use, this pool now serves as
+ * a secondary standardization resource should Pool 1 become exhausted. DSCP
+ * values ending in '01' (binary) are assigned via Standards Action, with a
+ * focus on adopting new, standardized traffic classes as the need arises.
+ *
+ * For pool updates see:
+ * https://www.iana.org/assignments/dscp-registry/dscp-registry.xhtml
