QOS on a WR21

I am trying to set up quality of service for a audio stream to a device on the LAN. I set it up per Quick Note 15. In the firewall I have the rule "dscp 46 in on eth 0 from 192.168.70.4 to any. 192.168.70.4 is the codec used for decoding and encoding the audio. On the firewall page of the router should I see hits next to the rule? I am not sure if it is working.

Also I need to have the traffic coming into 192.168.70.4 set as a high priority.

Hi

do you have any other rules in the firewall ?
Are they triggering before this rule ?
have you enabled the firewall on the ethernet interface?

inbound QOS you would have to add a firewall rule on wan interface to tag the packets.
so if on PPP you might have

“dscp 46 in on PPP 1 from any to 192.168.70.4”

you should realy be looking at taging the packet specific to the audio stream

do you have other QOS aware devices in the network ?

regards

Yes, I have other rules in the firewall. I used the firewall that came default and added the line for dscp. I see now where the rule
" 32 18 dscp 46 in on eth 0 from 192.168.70.4 to any"
has received some hits. I just added the rule
“dscp 46 in on PPP 1 from any to 192.168.70.4” for the inbound traffic.

I do not have any other QOS aware devices in the network at this time.

I am not sure how to tag the packet specific to the audio stream.

Thank You
