QoS

Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a network's ability to deliver data with minimum delay, and the net- working methods used to control the use of bandwidth. Without QoS, all traffic date is equally likely to be dropped when the network is congested. This can cause a reduction in network performance and mark the net- work inadequate for a time-critical application such as video-on-demand.

The qos command menu lists commands for managing traffic. Move the cursor “ >>” to qos in the setup menu and press Enter. The following menu displays:

>> mode	Trigger Quality of Service function
qweight	Modify queue weight
qSchdl	Modify queue schedule type
portPri	Modify port priority
vlanTagPri	Modify VLAN TAG priority
ipDscpPri	Modify IP DSCP priority
list	Show QoS configuration

Mode

You can choose from three types of QoS: Port-Based, VLAN Tag, and IP DSCP. If you are not going to use the QoS function, set this option to Disable.
