3.2.6 QoS (Quality of Service)
Quality of Service ensures critical data is delivered consistently and pre-
dictably. EKI-6538 supports Layer 2 802.1p priority queue control to pri-
oritize network packets depending on customer’s needs. The feature of
QoS is useful in improving determinism.
Fig 3.26 shows the EKI-6538 QoS configuration page. Setting the corre-
sponding table of the packet default priority (0~7) and the switch
Queue(0~3). As WRR mode rule, each Queue will transmit packets as the
weight number (1~31) in turn.
