QoS (Quality of Service)

QoS

To use QoS, select Enable. Otherwise, keep the

default, Dsable.

Application-based QoS

Application-based QoS manages information as it is

transmitted and received. Depending on the settings of

the QoS screen, this feature will assign information a high,

medium, or low priority for the five preset applications

and three additional applications that you specify.
The five preset applications are the following:

FTP (File Transfer Protocol)

A protocol used to transfer files over a TCP/IP network

(Internet, UNIX, etc.). For example, after HTML pages

are developed for a website on a local machine, they

are typically uploaded to the web server using FTP.
HTTP (HyperText Transport Protocol)

The communications protocol used to connect to

servers on the World Wide Web. Its primary function

is to establish a connection with a web server and

transmit HTML pages to the client web browser.
Telnet

A terminal emulation protocol commonly used on

Internet and TCP/IP-based networks. It allows a user at

a terminal or computer to log onto a remote device

and run a program.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)

The standard e-mail protocol on the Internet. It is a

TCP/IP protocol that defines the message format and

the message transfer agent (MTA), which stores and

forwards the mail.
POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3)

A standard mail server commonly used on the Internet.

It provides a message store that holds incoming e-mail

until users log on and download it. POP3 is a simple

system with little selectivity. All pending messages

and attachments are downloaded at the same time.

POP3 uses the SMTP messaging protocol.

Specfc Port#

You can add three more applications by

entering their respective port numbers in these fields.

Hgh prorty/Medum prorty/Low prorty

For each

application, select Hgh prorty (traffic on this queue

shares 70% of the total bandwidth), Medum prorty

(traffic on this queue shares 15% of the total bandwidth),

or Low prorty (traffic on this queue shares 10% of the

total bandwidth).
