7.1.2 Precedence
Except where the specification for a particular routing protocol
specifies otherwise, a router SHOULD set the IP Precedence value for
IP datagrams carrying routing traffic it originates to 6
(INTERNETWORK CONTROL).
- DISCUSSION
-
Routing traffic with VERY FEW exceptions should be the highest
precedence traffic on any network. If a system's routing traffic
can't get through, chances are nothing else will.
