Features
QoS Engine
This section will allow you to prioritize particular clients over others, so that those
clients receive higher bandwidth. For example, if one client is streaming a movie
and another is downloading a non-urgent file, you might wish to assign the former
device a higher priority than the latter so that the movie streaming is not disrupted
by the traffic of the other devices on the network.
In the Features menu on the bar on the top of the page, click
QoS Engine
.
Under All Devices, you will see device cards representing each connected client. If
some are off-screen, you can use the
<
and
>
buttons to scroll through the cards.
A maximum of
one
device can be assigned
Highest
priority.
A maximum of
two
devices can be assigned
High
priority.
A maximum of
eight
devices can be assigned
Medium
priority.
If no devices are explicitly assigned a priority, they will all be treated with equal
priority. If some devices are not assigned a priority and others are, the unassigned
devices will be treated with the lowest priority.
To assign a priority level to a device, drag the device card from the All Devices list
over an empty slot and release the mouse button. The card will remain in the slot.
If you want to remove a priority assignment from a device and return it to the All
Devices list, click the cross icon in the top right of the device card.
Click
Save
when you are done.

Allows multiple VPN clients to connect to their corporate network
using IPSec. Some VPN clients support traversal of IPSec through
NAT. This Application Level Gateway (ALG) may interfere with the
operation of such VPN clients. If you are having trouble connecting

with the system administrator of your corporate network whether
your VPN client supports NAT traversal.
