Configuring Class of Service 81
5 Click the box next to each application that you want
to have high-priority network access.
Class of Service divides applications into two network
access priority groups:
High-priority
Low-priority (normal-priority)
Applications that you select are marked for high-priority
network access. Unselected applications are given
low-priority (normal-priority) network access.
Based on your selections, the driver can recognize network
traffic as high-priority when that traffic is generated by a
chosen application.
6 Click OK.
7 Restart the computer.
Adding Class of Service Ranges and Protocols
You can add information for Class of Service applications
that you want to prioritize but which are not listed on the
3Com Class of Service Setup window (Figure 17).
You must specify port or socket ranges as well as the
network protocol being used. Obtain the information from
the application manufacturer.
The Class of Service network driver uses these ranges
to determine whether a packet should be treated as
high-priority. If you are not able to obtain the range,
you can set the entire range to 0000–9999.
To add the Class of Service ranges and protocols, follow
these steps:
1 Click the Additional Ranges tab.
The Class of Service Additional Ranges window appears, as
shown in Figure 18.
