TANDBERG MPS ADMINISTRATOR GUIDE

Quality of Service (QoS)

All QoS features must be enabled in your IP net- work in addition to correct MPS configuration.

QoS Configuration for the MPS is done from System Configuration in the web interface, see System Configuration > QoS

DiffServ

DiffServ defines which priority audio, video, data and signalling packets should have in an IP network.

IP Precedence

IP Precedence defines which priority audio, video, data and signalling should have in an IP network. The higher the number, the higher the priority.

IP Precedence

IP Precedence is a classification of packets from 0 (low priority) to 7 (high priority). The values 6 and 7 are typically reserved for congestion control. IP Precedence helps a router select what kind of traffic to prioritize. By means of queue mechanisms, it can select which packets to send first and which to throw away. Some information/traffic is time critical while other is not, and classification is used to differentiate this traffic.

One may set separate IP Precedence for Signalling, Audio, Video and Data (values 1 – 7) as well as turn IP Precedence off.

The Auto setting uses the following values for IP Precedence:

•Signalling = 4

•Audio/Video = 4

•Data = 4 (e.g. FECC commands)

Separate priorities for Audio and Video are not recommended as this may cause reduced quality and lipsync problems.

Type of Service

Type of Service enables the user to define what type of connection that should be chosen for the IP traffic. Helps a router select a routing path when multiple paths are available.

Differential Services (DiffServ)

Differential services is another method of QoS offered by TANDBERG that utilizes 6 bits of the Type of Services Byte. Differential services is an extension of IP Precedence, where one can set values from 0 to 63 (63=Highest priority). This method is currently replacing IP Precedence as the preferred method for setting priority of packet traffic.

IP Type of Service (TOS)

TOS helps a router select a routing path when multiple paths are avail- able.

•Delay - tells router to minimize delay

•Throughput - tells router to maximize throughput

•Reliability - tells router to maximize reliability

•Cost - tells router to minimized cost

•Off - Turns TOS off
