Chapter 10 Quality of Service (QoS)
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Table 30 Network Settings > QoS > General
LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
QoS | Select the Enable check box to turn on QoS to improve your network |
| performance. |
|
|
WAN Managed | Enter the amount of upstream bandwidth for the WAN interfaces that |
Upstream | you want to allocate using QoS. |
Bandwidth | The recommendation is to set this speed to match the interfaces’ actual |
| |
| transmission speed. For example, set the WAN interfaces’ speed to |
| 100000 kbps if your Internet connection has an upstream transmission |
| speed of 100 Mbps. |
| You can set this number higher than the interfaces’ actual transmission |
| speed. The ZyXEL Device uses up to 95% of the DSL port’s actual |
| upstream transmission speed even if you set this number higher than |
| the DSL port’s actual transmission speed. |
| You can also set this number lower than the interfaces’ actual |
| transmission speed. This will cause the ZyXEL Device to not use some of |
| the interfaces’ available bandwidth. |
| If you leave this field blank, the ZyXEL Device automatically sets this |
| number to be 95% of the WAN interfaces’ actual upstream transmission |
| speed. |
|
|
LAN Managed | Enter the amount of downstream bandwidth for the LAN interfaces |
Downstream | (including WLAN) that you want to allocate using QoS. |
Bandwidth | The recommendation is to set this speed to match the WAN interfaces’ |
| |
| actual transmission speed. For example, set the LAN managed |
| downstream bandwidth to 100000 kbps if you use a 100 Mbps wired |
| Ethernet WAN connection. |
| You can also set this number lower than the WAN interfaces’ actual |
| transmission speed. This will cause the ZyXEL Device to not use some of |
| the interfaces’ available bandwidth. |
| If you leave this field blank, the ZyXEL Device automatically sets this to |
| the LAN interfaces’ maximum supported connection speed. |
