How to set up Quality of Service (QoS)

Quality of Service (QoS) in Bandwidth Management is used to classify data traffic into different groups assigned with different priority levels. Thus, when the network bandwidth is limited, we can reserve bandwidth for critical applications to ensure unimportant activities will not use all the available bandwidth.

Introduction to Bind IP to MAC

While being the DHCP server for the LAN network, Vigor Router provides Bind-IP-to-MAC for DHCP Reservation. If you reserve an IP address, it will be excluded from the DHCP pool, and only the device (MAC address) binding to it can obtain that IP address from the router. The feature allows Network Administrator to give some devices a specific IP address while using DHCP for the network IP configuration, especially for the devices that are often accessed by other LAN clients, such as a printer, network storage, or servers. Also, it enables the Network Administrator to manage the IP address of each LAN client, without the need for configuration on each device individually.
