By changing the DSCP to Queue mapping, the Queue schedule method, and

bandwidth allocation, it is possible to achieve improved quality of service in a

network.
The DSCP to Queue mapping is applicable to IP packets when:

• The switch is in Basic mode and DSCP is the trusted mode
• The switch is in Advanced mode and the packets belongs to flows that are

DSCP trusted

Non-IP packets are always classified to the best-effort queue.
To map DSCP to queues:

1 Click Quality of Service > General > DSCP to Queue in the tree view to

display the DSCP to Queue page.
The DSCP values in the incoming packet and its associated queues are

displayed.

2 Enter the fields:

DSCP In — The values of the DSCP field in the incoming packet.

Queue — The queue to which packets with the specific DSCP value is

assigned. The values are 1-4, where 1 is the lowest value, and 4 is the

highest.
