To configure port-based QoS:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is off-network using
an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
The login page displays.
4. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The Switch Information page displays.
5. Select QoS.
The Quality of Service page displays.
6. If this is the first time that you are setting up port-based QoS, select the Port-based radio button and
continue with the next step.
Otherwise, see Step 9.
A pop-up window opens, informing you that the current QoS settings will be lost.
7. Click the OK button.
The pop-up window closes.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved and the Port Priority table displays.
9. To set the port priority for one or more ports, do the following:
a. Select one or more ports.
b. In the Priority menu, select the priority.
c. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved. The same priority is applied to all ports that you selected.
10. To set a different port priority for one or more other ports, repeat Step 9.
Set Up Rate Limiting
You can limit the rate at which the switch accepts incoming data and the rate that it retransmits outgoing
data.
Rate limiting can be set for a port in addition to other QoS settings. If the port rate limit is set, the switch
restricts the acceptance or retransmission of data to the values configured.
