So then is there a way to modify the packet on the way out of squid to force it to be the TOS we want that will cause it to go to 20: instead of 10: ? Maybe modification of squid is in order? to keep it from changing the TOS field? (We have the source! :) ) Or is there some other way to make it so that SSH traffic itself is bumped to higher priority than just the generic 0x10 TOS packets? Maybe match on destination or source port 22?
