The set of rules included in a role, along with any access or CoS defaults, determine how the system handles all network traffic of any client assigned to the role. For example, a Doctor role can be assigned a higher priority CoS and default access control due to the sensitivity and urgency of services that a doctor provides to patients.

- Define how the Layer 2 priority of the packet will be marked. Priority 0 is the highest priority.
- For ToS/DSCP, to define how the Layer 3 ToS/DSCP will be marked, do one of the following:
- In the CoS dialog box, set the Mask value.
Select a hexadecimal value to use for the ToS/DSCP value. For example, if the mask is 0xF0, then only the four most significant bits of the ToS of the received packets are marked. So, if the received ToS is 0x33 and the ToS marking is set to 0x2A, then the resulting ToS is 0x23.
