level using DSCP values. Assigning QoS levels
prioritizes the ports for network bandwidth use.
Higher the DSCP value, higher the QoS level and thus
higher on the network bandwidth allocation priority
list. Use 0if you do not want to assign a QoS level. The
network environment must support DSCP in order
for this feature to function properly. Contact your
network administrator for more details.
