Policy Manager:
On this menu the user can configure multiple QoS policies in order to apply them on
the WAN interface when selecting QoS type as ACC (Adaptive Congestion Control), this feature
combines the power of the original legacy class based QoS, while adding true ingress shaping, and
reducing the configuration difficulty. Traditional QoS systems rely on the actual bandwidth provided by
the ISP to remain constant, they also require you to set the link rate below what the ISP provisions your
link, which leaves the link underutilized. The ACC QoS solves this problem. The ACC QoS also features
the anti-buffer bloat and flow fairness of the Smart Queue QoS. Beyond that, the new QoS allows for
defining classes so that flows that are latency sensitive and/or need a minimum amount of bandwidth
can be placed int, this is extremely useful for VoIP traffic.
Refer to the following tables for each tab option:
Table 14: General Settings
Up/Down Stream
QoS Enabled
Check to enable upstream and downstream bandwidth speeds for the selected
WAN interface.
Upstream
Set the Upstream value to specify the upload bandwidth for selected interface, the
value should end with Mbit. Note that the set value will affect and limit the
bandwidth values on created classes on
QoS Upstream
.
Examples:
500Mbit
100Kbit
Downstream
Set the Downstream value to specify the download bandwidth speed for selected
interface, the value should end with “Mbit”, “Kbit” or with no unit if the set value is
referring to “bit” unit.
Examples:
1000Mbit
100Kbit
Type
Select which QoS method to apply on select WAN interface:
•
SQM:
Smart queue management queueing mode will be applied to the
interface along with the option to select Qdisc and Manager values.
•
ACC:
Select this option in order to use active congestion control QoS mode
on the interface then select which policy to apply, users should create policies
under “
Router
→
QoS
→
Policy
Manager
”.
•
Legacy:
Select this option in order to use legacy classifying and filter QoS
mode, users need to configure the related DSCP marking and bandwidth
limitations under the menu “
Router
→
QoS
→
Legacy
QoS
”.
