Asterisk can and does do this.  We use this every day.  

Check out the following documentation:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+QoS
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+iax.conf
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+sip.conf

Make close note of the TOS flag in both iax.conf and sip.conf.

Good luck,

Robert Jackson

Thank you to both Robert and Manjit for your suggestions and pointers.

Regards,

Dale
