Quality of Service
Destination Address
- The destination address of the packets sent to or received
from the network object. This address can be configured in the same manner as
the source address.
Protocol
- Select a specific traffic protocol from the drop-down list, or add a new
one. To add a new traffic protocol:
1.
Select
Specify Protocol
from the drop-down list. The screen will refresh
and an “Add” link appears.
2.
Click
Add
, and add a new protocol. This is the same as clicking “New
Entry” in the “Protocols” screen.
DSCP
-Use this drop-down list to mark a
DSCP
value on packets matching a
connection that matches this rule. To do so, select
Specify
from the drop-down
list and enter the hexadecimal value of the
DSCP
.
Set Priority
- Activate this check box to add a priority to the rule. The screen
will refresh, allowing a selection of one of eight priority levels, zero being the
lowest and seven the highest (each priority level is mapped to low/medium/high
priority). This sets the priority of a packet on the connection matching the rule,
while routing the packet.
Log Packets Matched by This Rule
- Check this check box to log the first packet
from a connection that was matched by this rule.
When should this rule occur?
- By default, the rule will always be active.
However, scheduler rules can be configured to define time periods during which
the rule is active. To learn how to configure scheduler rules, see the “Advanced
Settings” chapter.
☞
Note:
The hierarchy of the class rules is determined by the addi-
tion order to the class. For example, if the first rule is “match
packets with any source address, any destination address, and
any protocol to this class,” all packets traveling through Router
will be associated with the specific class. Any rules defined later
will not have any effect.
