Class Based Forwarding (CBF) provides a means for forwarding traffic through selected tunnels based on the traffic class of the incoming packet. Starting 4.32.2F CBF supports forwarding MPLS labeled traffic based on the EXP value in the incoming packet or the internal traffic class (TC) resolved from the parameters of the packet (e.g TC derived from EXP bits combined with port trust mode). Here, EXP bits refer to the Experimental bits in the MPLS header.
