Configuring Quality of Service Settings
QoS configuration allows you to classify and prioritize traffic according to either ToS
or Dot1p classifications. This section is for advanced network configuration. In general,
the default values should be retained for optimal traffic prioritization.
CAUTION: Do not customize these options unless you are an experienced network
administrator or are under the guidance of an IT/support professional. These settings
should only be changed in rare circumstances, in situations where the default settings
need to be changed to match those of a non-standard network configuration.
NOTE: Note that if Dot1p classification and ToS classification are both enabled,
Dot1p classification takes precedence. Therefore, if you want to use ToS classification,
Dot1p classification should be disabled.

interfaces independently.
