Quality of Service (QoS)
TransPort Quality of Service (QoS) queues and filters allow you to identify and prioritize traffic, as well
as restrict bandwidth for a given queue.
You can categorize and prioritize traffic using QoS queues. Traffic associated with lower-numbered
queues is given higher priority than traffic associated with higher-numbered queues, although there
are exceptions depending on how you have configured bandwidth restrictions for the queues.
Each queue has one or more QoS filters used to identify traffic associated with the queue. As traffic
flows through the router destined for a QoS-enabled WAN, it is associated with a queue based on QoS
filter criteria. Once traffic is associated with a queue, it is prioritized and delivered according to the
configured queue parameters.
This section describes how to enable QoS on one or more configured WANs and configure QoS queues
and filters.
Configure QoS
Configuring QoS consists of the following:
n Enabling a configured WAN for QoS.
n Configuring from one to eight QoS queues using the eight tabs in the Queues panel. Queue 1
has the highest priority; queue 2 has second-highest priority, queue 3 has third-highest priority,
and so on up to queue 8 which has the lowest priority.
n Configuring filters for each configured queue to force traffic to the queue. You can configure up
to 32 filters.
