Configuring Qos Settings - Cisco TelePresence Server 7010 Product User Manual

Configuring QoS settings

To configure Quality of Service (QoS) on the TelePresence Server for audio and video, go to
QoS.
QoS is a term that refers to a network's ability to customize the treatment of specific classes of data. For
example, QoS can be used to prioritize audio transmissions and video transmissions over HTTP traffic.
These settings affect all audio and video packets to H.323 endpoints. All other packets are sent with a
QoS of 0.
The TelePresence Server allows you to set a 6-bit value for Type of Service (IPv4) or Traffic Class
(IPv6), which can be interpreted by networks as either Type of Service (ToS) or Differentiated Services
(DiffServ). Note that in terms of functionality, IPv6 QoS is identical to IPv4 QoS.
Note: Do not alter the QoS settings unless you need to do so.
To configure the QoS settings you need to enter a 6-bit binary value.
Further information about QoS, including values for ToS and DiffServ, can be found in the following
RFCs, available on the Internet Engineering Task Force web site www.ietf.org:
