Classes of service
Customers can decide how to assign their network’s traffic to different classes. ICSS's Carrier Intranet Service utilizes four such classes of traffic segregation:

• Effort Class – best used for “bulk” background applications, i. e., HTTP, FTP, e-mail, etc.

• Premium Class – tailored for business-critical applications that can not tolerate even a small amount of packet loss (e.g., Telnet, ERP)

• Multimedia Class – optimized for bursty and real time applications that can cope with a degree of packet loss but are highly delay sensitive, e.g., video conferencing

• Voice Class/real time – defined for the typical profile of Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic, i.e., relatively regular streams of small data packets. It is most suitable for delivering time and jitter (delay variation) sensitive applications and built using strict priority queuing mechanisms.
