Prior to the resolution, Vietnam was strictly a guerrilla war; fought between government forces and southern (VC) communist guerrillas. After the resolution; the US committed conventional US troops and commenced open warfare against the North Vietnam.
Translation: Vietnam converted from a un-conventional guerrilla war into a conventional war against Another Country (minus nuclear weapons).
