Quality of Service (QoS) settings provide flexibility to enable or disable Traffic Policies (Shaping and DPI), Usage statistics in the system. With QoS disabled, the system will not provide Usage Analytics (client and Access Network usage), Device and Network Traffic Policies (shaping and DPI), IP Data Priority and Application Data. When QoS is enabled, the system performance is approximately halved. It is recommended if the EpicOS System is performing Cellular/Satellite GW services only, then it makes good sense to disable QoS to improve performance.
Note: During installation of EpicOS System, QoS is enabled. Only users with administrative rights have access to this section and can disable QoS.
Disabling QoS
To disable QoS, perform the following steps.
Steps
· Click Quality of Service tab under the SDWAN screen.
· From the drop down, select 'Disable’ option. See Figure Quality of Service Disable.
· Click Confirm.
The QoS screen shows the note Disabling QoS will increase system performance. However, it will disable Usage Analytics, Device/Network Traffic Policies, IP Data Priority, and Application Data.
Enabling QoS
To enable QoS again, perform the following steps.
Steps
-
Click the Quality of Service tab under the SD-WAN screen.
-
In the Select QoS Settings list, select Enable.
-
Click Confirm.
