Diffserv Example Configuration - NETGEAR GS728TS Admin Manual

GS728TS, GS728TPS, GS752TS, and GS752TPS Gigabit Smart Switches
Precedence fields designating the incoming color value to be used as the conforming
color. The color of exceeding traffic may be optionally specified as well.
• Counting: updating octet and packet statistics to keep track of data handling along traffic
paths within DiffServ. In this DiffServ feature, counters are not explicitly configured by the
user, but are designed into the system based on the DiffServ policy being created. See
the Statistics section of this document for more details.
• Assigning QoS Queue: directs traffic stream to the specified QoS queue. This allows a
traffic classifier to specify which one of the supported hardware queues are used for
handling packets belonging to the class.
• Redirecting: forces classified traffic stream to a specified egress port (physical or LAG).
This can occur in addition to any marking or policing action. It may also be specified along
with a QoS queue assignment.
