Device Selection
Select the device from the drop down list and configure the device
selected.
List View
The QoS tab includes two list views to provide simple channel access
priority (CAP) classification for individual MAC addresses and IP Ports.
There is a collective limit of eight across both lists. No delimiters,
colons, or dashes are allowed in the MAC address format.
Priority Mapping
The ‘Priority Mapping’ group contains both VLAN and TOS Bit
mapping capability. When selected, packets matching the VLAN or
TOS Bit priority will be assigned the Powerline contention priority
(Channel Access Priority, CAP) as set in the corresponding dropdown
box. If a packet has both VLAN and TOS in it, VLAN will override
TOS.
Default CAP
The ‘Default CAP’ group allows for default priority mapping of packets
that do not have a VLAN or TOS bit. Settings are available for Unicast
(directed to a host).
‧
IGMP - (default CAP 3) - sets the channel access priority for IGMP
frames - these are the group management frames, not the
stream data
‧
IGMP managed Multicast Stream (default CAP 2) - sets the
default channel access priority for stream data belonging to a
snooped IGMP multicast group.
‧
Multicast/Broadcast - sets the default CAP1 for multicast frames
not in a snooped group and for broadcast frames.
‧
Unicast - (default CAP 1) - sets the default channel access
priority for unicast frames not matching any other classification
or mapping.
