DESCRIPTION
Select to enable or disable this queue.
Enter the descriptive name of this queue.
Select the interface to which this queue is applied.
Select the priority level (from 1 to 3) of this queue.
The smaller the number, the higher the priority level. Traffic assigned to
higher priority queues gets through faster while traffic in lower priority
queues is dropped if the network is congested.
Select the weight (from 1 to 8) of this queue.
If two queues have the same priority level, the ZyXEL Device divides the
bandwidth across the queues according to their weights. Queues with
larger weights get more bandwidth than queues with smaller weights.
This field displays Drop Tail (DT) and the ZyXEL Device drops the newly
arriving packet when the queue is full.
Specify the maximum transmission rate (in Kbps) allowed for traffic on
this queue.
Click Back to return to the previous screen without saving.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device.
