Enable Download QoS
: (Default: Enabled.) Deselect if you want your rule to apply to upload traffic only. Leave this selected to include download restrictions with this queue.
Borrow Spare Bandwidth
: (Default: Enabled.) When this is enabled, the interfaces/protocols associated with this rule will borrow unused bandwidth from other rules.
Disabling borrowing will restrict the traffic to the specified bandwidth. Higher priority queues will be offered excess bandwidth first.
Download Bandwidth
: This is the percentage of the connected WAN upload bandwidth that will be reserved for the specified traffic. The maximum value is adjusted to the
remaining percentage after other queues receive their share.
Download Priority
: The priority value has two different effects on traffic. Higher priority traffic is handled before lower priority traffic, which can lead to shorter response
times. Also, when spare bandwidth is available it is offered to higher priority queues first. Move the slider to select from the following options (Default: Normal):
Lowest

DSCP (DiffServ) Tag
: Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) is the successor to TOS (Type of Service). Use this field to 'tag' the traffic by putting the value in the DSCP
header of each IP packet that flows through this queue. Use the value of '0' to clear the existing DSCP value in the packet header.
DSCP Tagging is sometimes used so that other networking equipment, upstream or post-NAT, can do traffic shaping based on the DSCP Tags as opposed to IP addresses or
ports.
This setting is optional. For more information see the
Differentiated services Wikipedia page
