TR0149 Rev. C5

The example below shows how to configure the system such that all traffic from ‘wlan2’ with a

‘Background’ or ‘Best Effort’ priority will be increased to a ‘Video’ priority. Traffic with ‘Video’

and ‘Voice’ priorities will not be affected.

> use qos

qos> set in.wlan2.hwpri.min=2

This does not affect the rate limiting and reservation (section 13.2), it only affects which output

hardware queues are used.

13.2 Rate Limiting

A rate limit can be set at each QoS Control Point shown in Figure 45. The Control Points can

be split into three groups, listed below in decreasing order of importance:

• Interface output limit

• Interface output limit of traffic from a particular interface

• Interface output limit of traffic of a certain type from a particular interface

All rate limit parameter values are in kbps. If no rate limit parameter is set, rate

limiting will be disabled for that interface or interface and traffic combination.
