Quality of Service

Quality of Service (QoS) is an advanced traffic prioritization feature that allows
you to establish control over network traffic. QoS enables you to assign various
grades of network service to different types of traffic, such as multi-media, video,
protocol-specific, time critical, and file-backup traffic.

QoS reduces bandwidth limitations, delay, loss, and jitter. It also provides
increased reliability for delivery of data and allows you prioritization of certain
applications across the network. You can define exactly how you want the switch
to treat selected applications and types of traffic.

You can use QoS on your system to control a wide variety of network traffic by:

• classifying traffic based on packet attributes.

• Assigning priorities to traffic (for example, to set higher priorities to time-

critical or business-critical applications).

• Applying security policy through traffic filtering.

• Provide predictable throughput for multimedia applications such as video

conferencing or voice over IP by minimizing delay and jitter.

• Improve performance for specific types of traffic and preserve performance as

the amount of traffic grows.

• Reduce the need to constantly add bandwidth to the network.

• Manage network congestion.
