# How to configure QoS(Quality of Service) setting?

Note: This QoS Engine will allow you to prioritize particular clients over others, so that those\
clients receive higher bandwidth. For example, if one client is streaming a movie and another is\
downloading a non-urgent file, you might wish to assign the former device a higher priority\
than the latter so that the movie streaming is not disrupted by the traffic of the other device on\
the network.
