#3623: QoS: Set DSCP bits for interactive real-time applications -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: T_X | Type: patch (an actual patch, not a Status: new | request for one) Milestone: | Priority: normal unspecified | Component: Engine: Networking Version: | Keywords: git/master | dscp,qos,latency,jitter,802.11e,rfc4594 Blocked By: | Blocking: Operating System: All | /Non-Specific | -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- This patch enables Quality of Service features of IPv4/IPv6: It sets the Differentiated Service Code Point to 'Class Selector 4'. This is the recommended QoS setting for real-time interactive applications according to RFC4594. Most routers will probably not support these bits and just ignore them. But for the lucky few, it might reduce latency and jitter in case of parallel traffic streams on the network. It might even reduce packet loss in wireless networks if the access point does DSCP to 802.11e mappings. DSCP will be activated upon in game start, so lobby chatting etc. should be unaltered. -- Ticket URL: <http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/3623> Warzone 2100 Trac <http://developer.wz2100.net/> The Warzone 2100 Project |
