Network 2 (Cellular “wwan0”) QoS
QoS (Quality of Service) can be enabled and configured for both Network 1 (eth0) and Network 2
(wwan0). If enabled, the router will control the flow of outbound traffic according to the user-
defined filters. In other words, QoS improves performance by allowing the user to prioritize
applications. Filters can be defined to prioritize traffic based on the source or destination network,
source or destination port, or the source MAC address. Up to 32 user-defined filters can be
added. The following are predefined priority classes:
Network Control and Internetwork Control are typically used for network control packets such
as ICMP and have the highest priorities.
Bandwidth allocation is a minimum 5% each.
Voice: Bandwidth allocation is minimum 30%.
Video: Bandwidth allocation is minimum 20%.
Critical Applications: Bandwidth allocation is minimum 15%.
Excellent Effort: Bandwidth allocation is minimum 10%.
Best Effort: Bandwidth allocation is minimum 10%.
Background: Bandwidth allocation is minimum 5% and has the lowest priority.
Table 6-8 shows the network QoS settings that can be configured including adding new filters.
