Field

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

MGCP, SNMP, DNS, DHCP, RIP, RSTP, RTCP and RTP.

 

 

 

Physical Ports

 

 

Choose an Ethernet interface or WLAN Interface.

 

 

 

Destination

 

 

The Destination MAC address of the rule. If data packets

 

 

 

 

 

include the MAC address, the data packets are placed into

 

 

 

MAC

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the group.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The destination IP address of the rule. If data packets

 

 

 

IP

 

 

include the IP address, the data packets are placed into the

 

 

 

 

 

 

group.

 

 

 

Port Range

 

 

Port Range is from 0 to 65535.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Source MAC address of the rule. If data packets include

 

 

 

Source MAC

 

 

the MAC address, the data packets are placed into the

 

 

 

 

 

 

group.

 

 

 

Protocol ID

 

 

You can choose TCP/UDP, TCP, UDP, ICMP or IGMP.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select this option to Activate/Deactivate the 4094 VID on

 

 

 

 

 

 

the 4 different queues. VID (VLAN ID) is the identification

 

 

 

 

 

 

of the VLAN, which is basically used by the standard

 

 

 

Vlan ID Range

 

 

802.1Q. It has 12 bits and allows the identification of 4096

 

 

 

 

 

 

(2^12) VLANs. Of the 4096 possible VIDs, a VID of 0 is used

 

 

 

 

 

 

to identify priority frames and value 4095 (FFF) is reserved,

 

 

 

 

 

 

so the maximum possible VLAN configurations are 4,094.

 

 

 

IPP/DS Field

 

 

You may set IPP/TOS or DSCP.

 

 

 

IP Precedence

 

 

When IPP/DS field is set to IPP/TOS, you need to enter an

 

 

 

Range

 

 

IP precedence range.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Support services including Normal service, Minimize

 

 

 

Type of Service

 

 

delay, Maximize throughput, Maximize reliability and

 

 

 

 

 

 

Minimize monetary cost.

 

 

 

DSCP Range

 

 

DSCP Range is from 0 to 63.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select this option to Activate/Deactivate the 802.1p. IEEE

 

 

 

 

 

 

802.1p establishes eight levels of priority (0–7). Although

 

 

 

 

 

 

network managers must determine actual mappings, IEEE

 

 

 

802.1p

 

 

has made broad recommendations. Seven is the highest

 

 

 

 

 

priority which is usually assigned to network-critical traffic

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Open

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shortest Path First (OSPF) table updates. Five and six are

 

 

 

 

 

 

often for delay-sensitive applications such as interactive
