6-18 QoS The AT-9724TS supports 802.1p priority queuing Quality of Service.The following section discusses the implementation of QoS (Quality of Service) and benefits of using 802.1p priority queuing. 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.
Page 68: Bandwidth Control
CoS.The other CoS queues that have been given a nonzero value, and depending upon the weight, will follow a common weighted round-robin scheme. Remember that the AT-9724TS has 7 configurable priority queues (and seven Classes of Service) for each port on the Switch.

QoS settings are not suitable. In the Configuration folder open the QoS folder and click QoS Output Scheduling, to view the screen shown below. Allied Telesyn AT-9724TS High-Density Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Description The highest queue is the first to process traffic.That is, the highest queue will finish before other queues empty.
Page 70: Configuring The Combination Queue
Configuring the Combination Queue Utilizing the QoS Output Scheduling Configuration window shown above, the AT-9724TS can implement a combination queue for forwarding packets. This combination queue allows for a combination of strict and weight-fair (weighted round-robin “WRR”) scheduling for emptying given classes of service.To set the combination queue, enter a 0 for the Max Packets entry of the corresponding priority classes of service listed in the window above.
