Description

 

 

On

Select this option to turn 802.1 QoS on.

 

When you select this option and the QoS Service is installed and running, the i2050 Software

 

Phone adds 802.1q to the i2050 Software Phone packets. It will also assign 802.1p as per the

 

Communications Server definition (default 6).

 

 

Off

Select this option to turn 802.1 QoS off.

 

When you select this option, the i2050 Software Phone does not add 802.1q to the i2050

 

Software Phone packets, regardless of whether the QoS Server is present.

 

 

Automatic

Select this option if you want the i2050 Software Phone to decide if the 802.1 QoS is used.

detection

When you select this option, the i2050 Software Phone will attempt to connect with 802.1q added

 

 

to the packets. If the attempt is successful, then the i2050 Software Phone will use 802.1q for the

 

call. If the attempt fails (there is a timeout after approximately 1 second), the i2050 Software

 

Phone will attempt to connect again without adding 802.1q to the packets.

 

This is the default option.

 

 

Apply to all users

Users with administrator privileges (as determined by Windows) can apply the QoS settings to all

 

users on this computer.
