Conﬁguring Class of Service

This section describes activating and conﬁguring DynamicAccess Class of Service (Trafﬁc Prioritization) support for Windows NT 4.0.

Class of Service is available only with the 3C359 NIC NDIS 4 driver. This feature is not available with other 3C359 NIC drivers. Although the NDIS 4 miniport driver is compatible with Windows 95 (version 950b, OSR2), it does not currently provide Class of Service support for this version of Windows 95. The NDIS 4 miniport driver does provide Class of Service support for Windows 98.
