Some networks require certain packet flows to be transported with 
greater priority than others.  This draft defines a new PHB (Per 
Hop Behavior), the Multi-Level Expedited Forwarding (MLEF) PHB.  
RFC 3246 [3] defines the Expedited Forwarding PHB for applications 
requiring low latency, but with a single DSCP and treatment.  This 
draft extends that concept and defines a PHB with multiple 
treatments for packet flows for applications requiring low latency 
and multiple priority levels.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
