QoS VLAN M4300
Hi,
i have many M4300 Switches. I want to use QoS for my VLAN 40. I found this manual to do this.
In the policy there is the value Assign Queue. I dont understand this value.
Is 1 the lowest priority and 6 the highest?
It is a VoIP VLAN and i want the highest piority for this.

Hi Autolwolf,
Welcome to our community! :)
For each VLAN, you can set an 802.1p traffic priority class value from 0 (low) through 7 (high). This type of QoS is referred to as Class of Service (CoS) queuing because, in effect, you assign a class value to one of eight hardware queues on each port that is a member of the VLAN.
CoS queueing allows the switch to group various types of traffic (for example, data or voice) based on their VLAN and latency requirements and give preference to time-sensitive traffic. For example, traffic with a priority value of 0 is for most data traffic and is sent using best effort. Traffic with a higher priority value, such as 5, might be time-sensitive traffic, such as voice or video.
Here is the reference.
If ever your concern has been addressed or resolved, I encourage you to mark the appropriate reply as the “Accepted Solution” so others can be confident in benefiting from the solution. The NETGEAR Community looks forward to hearing from you and being a helpful resource in the future!

You may need to setup the QOS either web interface or CLI. What devices can I discover, monitor, and manage with Insight?
