Michael,
I'm not sure that I understand your question. If the traffic is truely
best effort then it requires no guarantees and you don't care about it
in your traffic engineering. It gets the lowest priority in the network
and is dropped in favor of the guaranteed traffic.
If you want to provide a "slightly better than best effort" service,
then this implies some level of performance guarantees for some amount
of this traffic. In this case you would describe it in terms of
individual e2e SLS just like the other types of services.
