Configuration Guide (AADvance Controller)


DiffServ Configuration

This option allows you to specify the priority of IP traffic and is particularly useful for

ensuring that high priority services are either not affected or less affected during

periods of network congestion.
When you set up this option you apply a priority value to a service and therefore

differentiate it from less important services. You can do this by setting a suitable

configuration of routers, or switches able to inspect IP headers and prioritize by the

Type of Service (ToS) header option. Network devices will then apply their rules to
prioritize IP traffic; AADvance simply maintains the priority when responding to

incoming messages and sets a priority according to the configuration for messages it

initiates.

Configure DiffServ

1) Select the DiffServ tab.

The DiffServ Editor dialog box opens and provides the following
