Section 8 - Configuring Client Quality of Service (QoS)
Creating a DiffServ Policy Map
Use the
Policy Map
page to create DiffServ policies and to associate a collection of classes with one or more policy
statements.
The UAP supports up to 50 Policy Maps.
Packets are classified and processed based on defined criteria. The classification criteria is defined by a class on the
Class Map
page. The processing is defined by a policy’s attributes on the
Policy Map
page. Policy attributes may be
defined on a per-class instance basis, and it is these attributes that are applied when a match occurs. A Policy Map
can contain up to 10 Class Maps. When the policy is active, the actions taken depend on which class matches the
packet.
Packet processing begins by testing the class match criteria for a packet. A policy is applied to a packet when a class
match within that policy is found.
To create a DiffServ policy, click the
Policy Map
tab.
