3.4.5 QoS Priority Configuration
Network traffic is always unpredictable and the only basic assurance that can be offered is
the best effort traffic delivery. To overcome this challenge, Quality of Service (QoS) is applied
throughout the network. This ensures that network traffic is prioritized according to specified
criterion and receives preferential treatments.
QoS enables users to assign various grades of network service to different types of traffic,
such as multi-media, video, protocol-specific, time critical, and file-backup traffic. Click the
option QoS Priority Configuration from the Switch Management menu and then the
following screen page appears.
