I have a Cisco AP1142N access point where I can enable QoS.
I have a few questions relating to QoS and how it actually works with devices:

1.How does the Cisco access point differentiate between traffic streams?
2.What happens if the source of the stream is not a Cisco device, e.g.: Netperf traffic generator?
3.hat is the access point examining to determine what sort of traffic stream it is (whether the AP is Cisco or not)?
4.Is it the TOS field?
5.Should all applications in the network be QoS-aware?
