Chapter 7 Quality of Service (QoS)

CoS technology includes DiffServ (Differentiated Services or DS). DiffServ is a new protocol and defines a new DS field, which replaces the eight-bit ToS (Type of Service) field in the IP header.

Tagging and Marking

In a QoS class, you can configure whether to add or change the DSCP (DiffServ Code Point) value in a matched packet. When the packet passes through a compatible network, the networking device, such as a backbone switch, can provide specific treatment or service based on the tag or marker.

7.2 The QoS General Screen

Use this screen to enable or disable QoS, set the bandwidth, and select to have the LTE Device automatically assign priority to upstream traffic according to the IP precedence or packet length.

Click Network Setting > QoS to open the General screen.

DESCRIPTION

Active QoS

Select the check box to turn on QoS to improve your network performance.

 

You can give priority to traffic that the LTE Device forwards out through the WAN interface.

 

Give high priority to voice and video to make them run more smoothly. Similarly, give low

 

priority to many large file downloads so that they do not reduce the quality of other

 

applications.
