Abstract
A method is provided in one example and includes allocating a first queue, allocating at least two default queues, where the at least two default queues depend from the first queue, allocating a plurality of local queues that each depend from one of the at least two defaults queues, receiving data in a data stream, determining a quality of service (QoS) associated with the data, and assigning the data to one of the plurality of local queues based on the determined QoS. In an example, the QoS is a differentiated services code point.
