Configure an IPv6 DiffServ IPv6 Classes

The IPv6 class configuration feature extends the existing QoS ACL and DiffServ functionality
by providing support for IPv6 packet classification. An Ethernet IPv6 packet is distinguished
from an IPv4 packet by its unique Ethertype value, so all IPv6 classifiers include the
Ethertype field. An IPv6 access list serves the same purpose as its IPv4 counterpart.

The destination and source IPv6 addresses use a prefix length value instead of an individual
mask to qualify them as a subnet addresses or a host addresses. The flow label is a 20-bit
number that is unique to an IPv6 packet, used by end stations to signify some form of Quality
of Service (QoS) handling in routers.

Packets that match an IPv6 classifier are allowed to be marked using only the 802.1p (CoS)
field or the IP DSCP field in the Traffic Class octet. IP precedence is not defined for IPv6.
This is not an appropriate type of packet marking.
