Add Upstream QoS Rules
You can give prioritized Internet access to the following types of traffic:
• Specific applications
• Specific online games
• A specific device by MAC address
To specify prioritization of traffic, create a policy for the type of traffic and add the policy to the
QoS Policy table in the QoS Setup page. For convenience, the QoS Policy table lists many
common applications and online games that can benefit from QoS handling.
