4. From the menu at the top of the page, select GAMING.
The page shows the TRANSMIT - TIMELINE, RECEIVE - TIMELINE, and DEVICES
panes.
5. In the DEVICES pane, for the port for which you want to set rate limits, do the
following:
• To set a rate limit for incoming traffic for the port, move the RECEIVE slider to a
value.
• To set a rate limit for outgoing traffic for the port, move the TRANSMIT slider to
a value.
Note: Depending on the position of the slider, the value jumps automatically to 0,
1, 5, 10, 50, 100, or 500.
(You do not need to click an APPLY button.)
Set the Priority for a Port
Port-based priority is the default QoS mode on the switch. In this QoS mode, you can
set the priority for a port. (You cannot do so in the 802.1P/DSCP QoS mode.)
You also can set the priority for a port (the same feature) as part of the Quality of Service
configuration on the switch (see Use Port-Based Quality of Service and Set Port Priorities
on page 38).
The switch services traffic from ports with a high priority (P7 or P6) before traffic from
ports with a medium (P5 or P4), normal (P3 or P2), or low priority (P1 or P0). Similarly,
the switch services traffic from ports with a medium priority before traffic from ports
with a normal or low priority and traffic from ports with a normal priority before traffic
from ports with a low priority. If severe network congestion occurs, the switch might
drop packets with a low priority.
To set the priority for a port:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
switch or to the switch directly through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
