Configure Port-Based Quality of Service

You can assign a priority to all data passing through a particular port. Data with a higher
priority is transmitted faster. If packets arrive at several ports at the same time, the ports
configured as higher priority transmit their packets first. You must determine which
ports will carry delay-sensitive data.
To configure port-based QoS:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that
is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch Using a Web
Browser on page 10.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The Switch Information page displays.
5. Select QoS.
The Quality of Service page displays.
6. If this is the first time that you are setting up port-based QoS, select the Port-based
radio button and continue with the next step.
Otherwise, see Step 9.
A pop-up window opens, informing you that the current QoS settings will be lost.
7. Click the OK button.
The pop-up window closes.
8. Click the Apply button.
