4.4 QoS
BR-6641 provides QoS towards both inbound and outbound traffic. It can ensure
certain services which are allocated enough bandwidth to provide satisfactory
quality. Because of the burst nature of voice/video/data traffic, sometimes the
amount of traffic exceeds the speed of a link. This function is to manage the
bandwidth so as to fine-tune your bandwidth utilization. Bandwidth Management
(BM) in BR-6641 is separated by the direction of traffic flow – either inbound (from
WAN to LAN) or outbound (from LAN to WAN).

The setting of QoS includes two parts: Classes and Filters.
Classes are to define the bandwidth classes that the rules are imposed on. The
defining of the class can be according to Priority, Idle/Busy Hour.
