The answer is yes, VPN traffics will always have a higher priority than normal Internet traffics. But for your information, Peplink Balance will not prioritize traffics inside VPN tunnel at this moment. Which means if there is heavy data transfers between two VPN peers, the video conference via VPN may be affected.
Thanks for the response. Is traffic priority within the VPN slated for a future update? Sounds like a feature that I know would help my company for sure. Especially since we use VOIP and when there is heavy data transfers, the quality of the call is affected just as you mentioned.
Customizable QoS in the Site to Site VPN is coming in a future firmware update. I do know there has been requests for the feature. I don’t have a time line for implementation as of yet. Once we do, we will make sure to make an announcement.
Is there any news on QoS within the Site to Site VPN in a future firmware update? I have VoIP traffic and data traffic within the VPN that I would love to be able to prioritize the VoIP, and found this thread which does seems pretty old.
Hello,
I am keenly interested in the up coming 5.4 firmware release. Specifically, does the QoS on the Site-To-Site VPN control VOIP traffic. We need to be able to dedicate bandwidth for VOIP phone traffic across the link and I can see file copies and activies can satuate the VPN link.
