individual applications or protocols.
A communications network transports a multitude of applications and data, including high-quality
video and delay-sensitive data such as real-time voice. Networks must provide secure,
predictable, measurable, and sometimes guaranteed services.
Achieving the required QoS becomes the secret to a successful end-to-end business solution.
Therefore, QoS is the set of techniques to manage network resources.
QoS class
Every incoming frame is classified to a QoS class, which is used throughout the device for
providing queuing, scheduling and congestion control guarantees to the frame according to what
was configured for that specific QoS class. There is a one to one mapping between QoS class,
queue and priority. A QoS class of 0 (zero) has the lowest priority.
