QoS

QoS is an implementation of the IEEE 802.1p standard that allows network administrators a method of
reserving bandwidth for important functions that require a large bandwidth or have a high priority,
such as VoIP (voice-over Internet Protocol), web browsing applications, file server applications or
video conferencing. Not only can a larger bandwidth be created, but other less critical traffic can be
limited, so excessive bandwidth can be saved. Each physical port on the Router can have up to 8
PVCs (Permanent Virtual Circuits) to which traffic from various sources can be mapped to, and in
turn prioritized. Select a PVC that has been configured (to configure a PVC click Home > WAN), and
then assign a Priority of 1 (low) to 4 (high). To enable QoS settings click the Enable Port Based
QoS check box. To enable IGMP Snooping/Proxy on a particular PVC click on the PVC and then
click the radio button to Enabled.
