The Advantages of 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.

    xStack DGS-3400 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch Understanding QoS The xStack DGS-3400 Series supports 802.1p priority queuing. The Switch has 8 priority queues. These priority queues are numbered from 6 (Class 6) — the highest priority queue — to 0 (Class 0) — the lowest priority queue. The eight priority tags specified in IEEE 802.1p (p0 to p7) are mapped to the Switch’s priority queues as follows: •...
