4.5.2 RIP(except XSLAN-140)
RIP is a protocol by which several routers exchanges their routes tables so
as to facilitate the routing process of each of the routers.
4.5.3 Static routes (except XSLAN-140)
A static route defines a target network (IP address + netmask) and the IP
address of the router leading to that network.
4.6 Quality of service (QoS) menu (except XSLAN-140)
4.6.1 DiffServ benefits & overview
The goal of Quality of Service algorithms is to guarantee that critical data
flows will be transmitted with lower delay than others.
The XSLAN implements the DiffServ algorithm.
We call “traffic” an IP address and a port Nr.
Four traffic classes are featured :
Premium, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Default (or Best effort).
A minimum and a maximum bandwidth have to be assigned to each class
except to the Premium class, the bandwidth of which is not limited.
This operation is carried-out with the “classes” menu.
Each traffic (i.e. a port Nr and IP address) entering the shdsl network has
to be assigned to one class; All traffics not assigned to any of the classes
are supposed to belong to the default class.
This operation is carried-out with the “classification menu”.
Thus, when a traffic enters the XSLAN switch, it is analysed by the switch
and marked as premium or gold or silver or bronze or default and then
transported through the shdsl network with the relevant priority.
4.6.2 “Classes” menu
Set a minimum and a maximum bandwidth to each class.
