QoS Mode: DSCP
DSCP: Packets are prioritized using the DSCP (Differentiated Services Code
Point) value. The Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) is a six-bit field
that is contained within an IP (TCP or UDP) header. The six bits allow the
DSCP field to take any value in the range 0 - 63. When QoS Mode is set to
DSCP, the DSCP Configuration table is displayed, allowing you to map each of
the DSCP values to a hardware output queue (low, normal, medium or high).
The default settings map all DSCP values to the high priority egress queue.
User can use the Prioritize Traffic drop-down list to quickly set the values in the
DSCP Configuration table to a common priority queue. Use Custom if you
want to set each value individually.
When the QoS Mode is set to DSCP, the DSCP Configuration table is
displayed as shown below.
