9.3.5. Advanced IP Settings - QoS/DSCP
Quality of Service (QoS) is used within a network to define priority levels for selected traffic. This allows for a higher level
of bandwidth to be used whenever a particular type of traffic is being sent to avoid latency and packet loss.
The network
administrator should be consulted before enabling this feature.
For example: Video streams require more bandwidth than email notifications. By assigning a higher DSCP (Differentiated Services
Code Point)
number to video streams guarantees the quality of the stream on the network.
• Navigation: Log in as an administrator.
From Home Screen, click “Config” button in top right corner, then click “Advanced” in
left column, then click “QoS/DSCP” from the sub-menu that opens.
