ProSafe VPN Firewall 200 FVX538 Reference Manual
The QoS priority settings conform to the IEEE 802.1D-1998 (formerly 802.1p) standard for class
of service tag.
You will not change the WAN bandwidth used by changing any QoS priority settings. But you will
change the mix of traffic through the WAN ports by granting some services a higher priority than
others. The quality of a service is impacted by its QoS setting, however.
See "Setting Quality of Service (QoS) Priorities" on page 4-27 for the procedure on how to use
this feature.

Tools for Traffic Management

The ProSafe VPN Firewall 200 includes several tools that can be used to monitor the traffic
conditions of the firewall and control who has access to the Internet and the types of traffic they
are allowed to have. See "Monitoring the Router" on page 6-20 for a discussion of the tools.

Administration

You can change the administrator and guest passwords and settings, configure an SNMP manager,
backup settings and upgrade firmware, and enable remote management. Administrator access is
read/write and guest access is read-only.

Changing Passwords and Settings

The default passwords for the firewall's Web Configuration Manager is password. Netgear
recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. You can also configure a
separate password for guests.
