3.2.2 QoS (Quality of Service)
The main goal of QoS (Quality of Service) is prioritizing incoming data, and preventing data loss
due to factors such as jitter, delay and dropping. Another important aspect of QoS is ensuring that
prioritizing one data flow doesn’t interfere with other data flows.
QoS helps to prioritize data as it enters your router. By attaching special identification marks or
headers to incoming packets, QoS determines which queue the packets enter, based on priority.
This is useful when there are certain types of data you want to give higher priority to, such as
voice packets given higher priority than Web data packets.
