4.2.3.2 QoS
The QoS (Quality of Service) setting can be found under this path:
System> Network> QoS
.
QoS allows providing differentiated service levels for different types of traffic packets, which
guarantees delivery of priority services especially when network congestion occurs. Adapting
the Differentiated Services (DiffServ) model, traffic flows are classified and marked with
DSCP (DiffServ Codepoint) values, and thus receive the corresponding forwarding treatment
from DiffServ capable routers.

DSCP Settings
The DSCP value range is from 0 to 63. The default DSCP value is 0, which means DSCP is
disabled. The IP Camera uses the following QoS Classes: Video, Audio and Management.
•
Video DSCP
The class consists of applications such as MJPEG over HTTP, RTP/RTSP and
RTSP/HTTP.
•
Audio DSCP
This setting is only available for the IP Cameras that support audio.
•
Management DSCP
The class consists of HTTP traffic: Web browsing.
NOTE:
To enable this function, make sure the switches/ routers in the
network support QoS.
