The following table describes the labels in this screen.
11.5 The Class Setup Screen
Use this screen to add, edit or delete QoS classifiers. A classifier groups traffic into data flows
according to specific criteria such as the source address, destination address, source port
number, destination port number or incoming interface. For example, you can configure a
classifier to select traffic from the same protocol port (such as Telnet) to form a flow.
You can give different priorities to traffic that the ZyXEL Device forwards out through the
WAN interface. Give high priority to voice and video to make them run more smoothly.
Similarly, give low priority to many large file downloads so that they do not reduce the quality
of other applications.
Click QoS > Class Setup to open the following screen.
