Chapter 4 Windows Media Center Enables the router to recognize certain audio and video streams generated by a Windows Media Center PC and prioritize these streams above other traffic. These streams are used by systems known as Windows Media Extenders, such as the Xbox 360. Automatic When enabled, this option causes the router to automatically attempt to prioritize traffic steams that it doesn't otherwise recognize, based on the behavior that the streams exhibit. This acts to deprioritize streams that exhibit bulk transfer characteristics, such as file transfers, while leaving interactive traffic, such as gaming or VoIP, running at a normal priority. Add WISH Rule A WISH Rule identifies a specific message flow and assigns a priority to that flow. For most applications, the priority classifiers ensure the right priorities and specific WISH Rules are not required. WISH supports overlaps between rules. If more than one rule matches a specific message flow, the rule with the highest priority is used. Enable This option is used to enable WISH. Name Enter a name for the rule. Priority The priority of the message flow is entered here. Four priorities are defined: • BK Background (least urgent) • BE Best effort • VI Video • VO Voice (most urgent) Protocol Select the protocol from the drop-down list. The default selection is Any. Host 1 IP Range The rule will only apply to a flow of messages that are from a computer with an IP address in the range specified here. Host 1 Port Range The rule will apply to a flow of messages that fall within the values defined in the Host IP 1 Range field and also utilize a port defined in the Host 1 Port Range field. Host 2 IP Range The rule will only apply to a flow of messages that are from a computer with an IP address in the range specified here.
