QoS Setup
Posted: Fri Mar 09, 2012 8:10 pm
I'm a bit confused about the best QoS Setup on Gargoyle 1.4.7. For my upload QoS I've specified what's attached.
My VoIP box is located at 192.168.1.106.
What I think I need to do is prioritise traffic so that all traffic from source: 192.168.1.106 going out to the internet needs to be set to VoIP.
In addition, in the QoS Download, I assume that I also need to set a corresponding rule that says all traffic destined for destination (rather than source) 192.168.1.106 also needs to be set to VoIP.
Is that correct?
I also note that there is an Application (Layer 7) Protocol that has a setting VoIP Audio. Is this a better approach to setting QoS?
Would it be better to set Application (Layer 7) Protocol to VoIP Audio for QoS Upload and QoS Download and remove the other rules? In that way, any VoIP packets coming from the Internet or on the LAN would be prioritised?
