Qos Engine - D-Link DIR-645 User Manual

Section 3 - Software Configuration
The QoS Engine option helps improve your network gaming performance by prioritizing applications. By default the QoS Engine settings are
disabled and application priority is not classified automatically. The QoS section contains a queuing mechanism, traffic shaping and classification.
It supports two kinds of queuing mechanisms. Strict Priority Queue (SPQ) and Weighted Fair Queue (WFQ). SPQ will process traffic based on
traffic priority. Queue1 has the highest priority and Queue4 has the lowest priority. WFQ will process traffic based on the queue weight. Users can
configure each queue's weight. The sum of all the queue's weight must be 100. When surfing the Internet, the system will do traffic shaping based
on the uplink and downlink speed. The classification rules can be used to classify traffic to different queues, then SPQ or WFQ will do QoS based on
the queue's priority or weight.
Enable QoS: This option is disabled by default. Enable this
option for better performance and experience with
online games and other interactive applications,
such as VoIP.
Uplink Speed: The speed at which data can be transferred from
the router to your ISP. This is determined by your
ISP. ISP's often define speed as a download/upload
pair. For example, 1.5Mbits/284Kbits. Using this
example, you would enter 284. Alternatively you
can test your uplink speed with a service such as
www.dslreports.com.
Downlink Speed:
The speed at which data can be transferred from
the ISP to the router. This is determined by your
ISP. ISP's often define speed as a download/upload
pair. For example, 1.5Mbits/284Kbits.
Using this example, you would enter 1500. Alternatively you can test your downlink speed with a service such as www.
dslreports.com.
Queue Type: Here the user can specify the queue type used. When choosing the option Strict Priority Queue, the router will apply QoS
based on the internal specification for the queue ID's listed. When choosing the option Weight Fair Queue, the router will
apply QoS based on the user defined percentage in the Queue Weight column.
Queue ID: In this column the Queue ID used will be displayed.
Queue Priority:
In this column the Queue Priority used will be displayed.
Queue Weight: After choosing to use the Weight Fair Queue option, under Queue Type, the user will be able to manual enter the Queue
Weight for each individual Queue ID.
