Quality of Service (QoS)
Advanced > QoS
QoS is an implementation of the |
|
IEEE 802.1p standard that |
|
allows network administrators a |
|
method of reserving bandwidth |
|
for important functions that |
|
require a large bandwidth or |
|
have a high priority, such as |
|
VoIP |
|
Protocol), web browsing |
|
applications, file server |
|
applications or video |
|
conferencing. Not only can a |
|
larger bandwidth be created, |
|
but other less critical traffic can |
|
be limited, so excessive |
|
bandwidth can be saved. Each |
|
physical port on the Router can |
|
have up to 8 PVCs (Permanent |
|
Virtual Circuits) to which traffic |
|
from various sources can be |
|
mapped to, and in turn |
|
prioritized. Select a PVC that |
|
has been configured (to |
|
configure a PVC click Home > |
|
WAN), and then assign a |
|
Priority of 1 (low) to 4 (high). |
|
To enable QoS settings click the |
|
Enable Port Based QoS check |
|
box. To enable IGMP |
|
Snooping/Proxy on a |
|
particular PVC click on the PVC |
|
and then click the radio button |
|
to Enabled. | QoS configuration menu |
