Edit list of QoS Settings

In addition to PVC-based QoS, you can assign different levels of priority to different packets based on information in the packets. To do this, click the Edit list of QoS Settings button. A window titled QoS Function will appear.

This window lets you set the priority for packets selected by any of the following criteria, alone or in combination:

•Destination (IP address and address mask, fully qualified domain name, or MAC address)

•Source (IP address and address mask, or MAC address)

•Transport protocol (TCP, UDP, or All)

•Destination port and/or source port (if protocol is set to TCP or UDP)

•Ethernet Type value (the value in the 13th and 14th octets of an Ethernet frame)

•Triggering of a particular application layer gateway (FTP, TFTP, H.323, IRC, MMS, GRE, PPTP, or SIP)

•Presence of a specified IEEE 802.1D user priority marker

•Presence of a specified IEEE 802.1Q virtual LAN (VLAN) ID

•Packet length between specified minimum and maximum numbers of octets.

Fragment packets’ size of AF and BE traffic to be equal to the size of EF traffic: Enable this option and input a packet size to have large Assured Forwarding (medium priority) and Best Effort (low priority) packets fragmented so they will not uduly delay Expedited Forwarding (high priority) packets. The value you enter should be from 68 to 1492.

When you have finished making changes in this window, click the Save button to save the changes, or click the Cancel button to undo your changes. Then click Close. You will be returned to the QoS panel. Click the Save Settings button to save your changes, or click the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes.
