Parameter Function Trap port

The destination port of the Trap information from the proxy program of the device. It is for the gateway device and the client-end PC in the LAN to exchange the information. It is a non-protocol connection port. It has no effect on the network applications. It is a UDP port not TCP port. The value ranges from 1 to 165535. The default value is 162.

4.2.9 Bonjour

The Bonjour interface is shown as below. See Figure 4-15. Bonjour is based on the multicast DNS service from the Apple. The Bonjour device can automatically broadcast its service information and listen to the service information from other device. You can use the browse of the Bonjour service in the same LAN to search the IPC device and then access if you do not know the IPC information such as IP address. You can view the server name when the IPC is detected by the Bonjour. Please note the safari browse support this function. Click the “Display All Bookmarks: and open the Bonjour, system can auto detect the IPC of the Bonjour function in the LAN.

4.2.10 Multicast

The multicast interface is shown as in Figure 4-16. Multicast is a transmission mode of data packet. When there is multiple-host to receive the same data packet, multiple-cast is the best option to reduce the broad width and the CPU load. The source host

can just send out one data to transit. This function also depends on the relationship of the group member and group of the outer. Here you can set multicast address and port. You also need to go to Live interface to set the protocol as Multicast.

4.2.12 Qos

The QoS interface is shown as below. See Figure 4-19. Qos (Quality of Service) is network security mechanism. It is a technology to fix the network delay and jam problem and etc. For the network service, the quality of service includes the transmission bandwidth, delay, the packet loss and etc. We can guarantee the transmission bandwidth, lower the delay, reduce the loss of the data packet and anti-dither to enhance the quality. We can set the DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) of the IP to distinguish the data packet so that the router or the hub can provide different services for various data packets. It can select the different queues according to the priority of the packets and select the bandwidth of the each queue. It can also discard at the different ratio when the broad bandwidth is jam.
