QoS 
QoS or Quality of Service is used to allot priority from the Router. This is done by allotting a priority from a port to a 
PVC. There are four priorities for each QoS configuration. “1” denotes the highest priority while “4” is the lowest.  
The  IGMP Proxy/Snooping is Disabled by default. This setting will not allow IGMP (Internet Group Management 
Protocol) packets to be forwarded to the LAN. IGMP is used to manage multicasting on TCP/IP networks, most users 
will not need to enable this. Some ISPs use IGMP to perform remote configuration for client devices, such as the 
Router. If you are unsure, check with your ISP. To enable IGMP service to the LAN interface, select Enabled and click 
the Apply button 
 
QoS Configuration window 
To set QoS for the router, first click the PortMapping QoS check box in the middle of the window. This will open the 
following window. Then select the PVC to associate with the corresponding port and choose a priority for this 
combination. The user may also enable IGMP Proxy/Snooping for each PVC at the top of the window by choosing the 
PVC from the pull-down menu and clicking the Enabled radio button, set a maximum Bandwidth in kbps from Auto 
to 1024 using the drop-down menu. Click Apply to set the configuration.
