Hi,
Thank you very much for the reply.

I tried to use the -j TOS option but it only sets the TOS field to Minimize-Delay, Maximize-Throughput, Maximize-Reliability, Minimize-Cost or Normal-Service.

I am more interested in setting the Differentiated Service Code Point Bits to classes EF, BE or any of CSxx or AFxx classes just for ipv6 packets using ip6tables command.
