CLI
The parameters that are used to set these rate reservations are in the ‘qos’ interface and are
of the form ‘out.<output intf>.<input intf>.reserve’, where <output intf> is one of the following:
default, eth0, wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, wlan4; and <input intf> is one of the following: default, eth0,
local, wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, wlan4.
Typically, most rate reservations will involve reserving bandwidth for traffic from a particular
client access interface to the eth0 interface. The example below shows how to reserve differing
amount of bandwidth on eth0 for traffic originating from the wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, and wlan4
interfaces.

A rate reservation for a certain type of traffic that enters the EL-500 through a particular
interface and exits it through another interface can be set with the ‘out.<output intf>.<input
intf>.<traffic type>.reserve.’ parameters in the ‘qos’ interface, where <output intf> is one of the
following: default, eth0, wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, wlan4; <input intf> is one of the following: default,
eth0, local, wlan1, wlan2, wlan3, wlan4; <traffic type> is one of the following: ‘vo’, ‘vi’, ‘be’, ‘bk’
(see Table 13 for description of traffic types).
The ‘out.default.default.limit’ value is applied to interfaces that have the ‘out.<output
intf>.<input intf>.reserve’ parameter set to ‘inherit’ or is left blank.
The example below shows how to reserve bandwidth for voice, video, best effort, and
background traffic from wlan1 through the eth0 interface to 512 kbps, 1 Mbps, 256 kbps, and
128 kbps, respectively.

Web GUI
The rate reservation parameters can be set via the web interface under the “QoS” and
“Advanced QoS” tabs on the “QoS” page (see Figure 51 and Figure 52).
