TS7700 should have different grid ports for Deferred work vs. sync & remote mounts

We have a multiple site TS7700 configuration with multiple grids in each location. The majority of our cross site workload is deferred. However, we have some critical workloads that we need to sync across the distance. An example of this is the HSM migration workload. Just recently we had instances where the WAN links were saturated. Due to the amount of data that is sent between the sites with the VTS our workload over port 350 is classified with the lowest class of service. While this is fine for the deferred workloads any synchronous workloads are also classified in this lowest class of service. We would like the ability to classify the sync and remote mount workloads higher which requires a differentiation of those workloads from the VTS.
