Its not mentioned exactly what I was looking for as I have seen that document before also. My doubt was why in both filter as well as class too? I understand that in filter we require priority to minimize delay and in class to prioritize excess traffic (delay is a factor here too but not the primary one). Am I correct? How severe is impact on delay by priority in class? Thanks for all the help.
