Configuring Quality of Service (QoS)

The Cisco RV 110W provides configuration for QoS features, such as bandwidth

profiles, traffic selectors, and traffic meters. It contains the following sections:

• Configuring Bandwidth Profiles, page 120

• Configuring Traffic Flows, page 121

• Configuring Traffic Metering, page 122

• Configuring 802.1p, page 124

Configuring Bandwidth Profiles

Using bandwidth profiles, the bandwidth of the traffic flowing from the secure

network (LAN) to the insecure network (WAN) can be shaped. Bandwidth limiting

determines the speed from which the data is sent from your router. You can use a

bandwidth profile to limit the outbound traffic, thus preventing the LAN users from

consuming all of the bandwidth of the Internet link.

Bandwidth profiles configuration consists of enabling the bandwidth control

feature from the Device Manager, and adding a profile which defines the control

parameters. The profile can then be associated with a traffic selector, so that

bandwidth profile can be applied to the traffic matching the selectors.

To configure bandwidth profiles, perform the following steps.
