QoS
The QoS function allows you to configure settings for the switch QoS interface and how the
switch connects to a remote server to get services.
Traditionally, networks operate on a best-effort delivery basis, all traffic has equal priority and
an equal chance of being delivered in a timely manner. When there is congestion, all traffic
has an equal chance of being dropped.
The QoS feature can be configured for congestion-management and congestion-avoidance to
specifically manage the priority of the traffic delivery. Implementing QoS in the network makes
performance predictable and bandwidth utilization much more effective.
The QoS implementation is based on the prioritization values in Layer 2 frames.
QoS Properties
The QoS Properties allows you to set the QoS mode.
