IP Prioritization

set ip prioritize [ off | on ]

Allows you to suppor t traffic that has the TOS bit set. This defaults to

off.

Differentiated Services (DiffServ)

The commands in this section are suppor ted beginning with Firmware Version 7.4.2.

set diffserv option [ off | on ]

Turns the DiffSer v option

off (default) or on. on enables the service and IP TOS bits are

used, even if no flows are defined. Consequently, if the end-point nodes provide TOS set-
tings from an application that can be interpreted as one of the suppor ted states, the Gate-
way will handle it as if it actively marked the TOS field itself.

NOTE:

The Gateway itself will not override TOS bit settings made by the endpoints.
Suppor t for source-provided IP TOS priorities within the Gateway is achieved
simply by turning the DiffSer ve option “on” and by setting the lohi-asymmetr y
to adjust the behavior of the Gateway’s internal queues.

set diffserv lohi-ratio [ 60 - 100 percent ]

Sets a percentage between 60 and 100 used to regulate the level of packets allowed to be
pending in the low priority queue. The default is 92. It can be used in some degree to
adjust the relative throughput bandwidth for low- versus high-priority traffic.
