2.16 QoS
This group of settings lets you configure the quality of service you offer, if applicable.
There are two types of services. The service to use depends on what your VoIP service provider supports:
• GQoS, which is available for audio and video.
• DSCP (also known as ToS), which is available for audio, video and signaling.
In a network that has the default configuration, the recommended value for audio is 46, because “46” is the
standard marking for audio.
Bria supports 802.1p QoS packet tagging. If you set up for QoS, Bria will include the specified information in
the packets that it sends to the network provider. Whether the packet is delivered with the specified service
depends on whether your broadband router and the network provider between you and the other party supports
multiple transport services. In other words, whether each network provider reads the QoS information and
prioritizes packet delivery based on the requested service.
2.17 Resources
Typically the contact list is stored locally. Privacy and presence information associated with a SIP account are
also typically stored remotedly. Privacy and presence information associated with an XMPP account are always
stored on the XMPP server.
Bria for Windows also includes support for MicroSoft Outlook® integration. Typically, you do not configure
Bria to use Outlook. Instead, you set storage to local and then let users choose to switch to use their Microsoft
Outlook contacts.
To store the contact list and SIP information remotely using WebDAV or XCAP, see the “Configuring for
Remote Storage of Resources” manual.
If you support both local and remote storage, Bria continually synchronizes the local and remote lists.
2.18 User Experience
This group of settings let the user change the behavior of the Bria GUI.
Also look at the settings in “Feature Enabling: Enabling Other Features” on page 15.
2.19 Video
These settings provide controls for video quality.
