User Manual for the NETGEAR 7200 Series Layer 2 Managed Switch Software

Chapter 8

Differentiated Services

This chapter contains the Command Line Interface (CLI) commands used for the QOS Differentiated Services (DiffServ) package.

The GSM7224 Layer 2 Managed Switch provides a simplified interface for enabling DiffServ support. A single command is used to enable and disable this function:

config diffserv adminmode <enable/disable>

When enabled, the device inspects the DSCP of each packet to determine whether the packet should receive preferential treatment. That is, the class of service given to the packet is determined by the DSCP. When disabled, the DSCP is not used for determining the class of service given to the packet.

The current status of the DiffServ function can be determined with the following command:

show diffserv info
