5.10 QoS

The QoS function allows you to configure settings for the Switch QoS interface and how the Switch con-
nects to a remote server to get services.
5.10.1

General

Traditionally, networks operate on a best-effort delivery basis, all traffic has equal priority and an equal
chance of being delivered in a timely manner. When there is congestion, all traffic has an equal chance of
being dropped.
The QoS feature can be configured for congestion-management and congestion-avoidance to specifically
manage the priority of the traffic delivery. Implementing QoS in the network makes performance predicta-
ble and bandwidth utilization much more effective.
The QoS implementation is based on the prioritization values in Layer 2 frames.
