LABEL DESCRIPTION

Traffic priority will be
automatically assigned by
Select how the Device assigns priorities to various incoming and outgoing traffic
flows.
• None: Disables auto priority mapping and has the Device put packets into
the queues according to your classification rules. Traffic which does not
match any of the classification rules is mapped into the default queue with
the lowest priority.
• Ethernet Priority: Automatically assign priority based on the IEEE 802.1p
priority level.
• IP Precedence: Automatically assign priority based on the first three bits of
the TOS field in the IP header.
• Packet Length: Automatically assign priority based on the packet size.
Smaller packets get higher priority since control, signaling, VoIP, internet
gaming, or other real-time packets are usually small while larger packets are
usually best effort data packets like file transfers.
