DSCP Based: enable DSCP-based QoS function at the port. If DSCP
o
bits are allowed, this checkbox allows the switch to use this
information at the IP packet to perform QoS functions. Checkbox
selected means DSCP-based QoS enabled, and checkbox empty
means disabled.
After one of the configurations described before is changed, there are buttons that

Port Policing menu allows configuring traffic limits for the ports.
If one configuration is desired to be applied at all ports, then the row "*" should be
used, that is, configuration done in the "*" row will be replied to all ports. Possible
configurations are as follows.
Port: shows the ports to be configured at this row;
o
Enabled: enable Port Policing function at the port. Checkbox
o
selected means function enabled, and checkbox empty means
disabled;
Rate: indicates the maximum allowed traffic on that port. Traffic
o
rates at the port higher than this field are not allowed if function is
enabled, then traffic close to the limit will start packet losing based
on the QoS configured. Allowed values are integer values and limits
depend on the Unit used. Range of 100 to 1,000,000 is allowed
when kbps or fps units are used. Range of 1 to 32,000 is allowed
when Mbps or kfps units are used;
Unit: indicates which unit should be used with Rate value to limit
o
traffic. Allowed values are kbps, Mbps, fps and kfps;
Flow Control: enable flow control usage at the port. Flow control
o
function is defined at the 802.3x standard, and defines methods to
equipment send pause frames instead of drop data when there is
congestion in the network. Checkbox selected means function
enabled, and checkbox empty means disabled.
After one of the configurations described before is changed, there are buttons
that allows the user to save or discard the configurations.
