2.8 QoS Setting
In some ports that need to have a high priority to manage the data transfer, | QoS | |||
should be changed. Set the port’s QoS to high to determine the port will | always transfer their | |||
data first. |

2.8.1 Priority Mode |

|
|
|
Before users do the priority setting, you have to check the “Enable High | Priority” | |||
box at Class of Service page. | (High and | |||
Low) queues, which catch the priority information in the | IP/DS based, or VLAN | |||
based in the incoming frames as | standard IEEE 802.1Q defines. In this way, the switch |
controller guarantees the service for high priority frames to some extent, depending on the load
condition of incoming traffic. (At | least, the high priority service offers better than that | |
of best effort service). It also provides different service ratio settings for | users to shape |
the prioritized frames on the streams in the incoming traffic.
2.8.2 Class of Service Configuration |
|
High/Low Priority setting: Specify high or low priority for each port. The port is | in High |
priority if the port has a check mark; otherwise, the port is in Low priority. |
|
Default: All ports in LOW priority. |
|
IP/DS base (TOS) priority recognition: Ports with TOS enabled will induce | switch to |
inspect the specific field of IP packet to control packets priority. Making a check mark in front of port ID indicates this port is TOS priority recognition enabled.
