Source
This is the source address or address group, including geographic address and FQDN
(group) objects, for whom this policy applies. If
any
displays, the policy is effective for
every source.
Destination
This is the destination address or address group, including geographic address and FQDN
(group) objects, for whom this policy applies. If
any
displays, the policy is effective for
every destination.
DSCP Code
These are the DSCP code point values of incoming and outgoing packets to which this
policy applies. The lower the number the higher the priority with the exception of 0 which
is usually given only best-effort treatment.
any
means all DSCP value or no DSCP marker.
default
means traffic with a DSCP value of 0. This is usually best effort traffic

BWM In/Pri/Out/Pri
This field shows the amount of bandwidth the traffic can use.
In
- This is how much inbound bandwidth, in kilobits per second, this policy allows the
matching traffic to use. Inbound refers to the traffic the Zyxel Device sends to a
connection’s initiator. If
no
displays here, this policy does not apply bandwidth
management for the inbound traffic.
Out
- This is how much outgoing bandwidth, in kilobits per second, this policy allows the
matching traffic to use. Outbound refers to the traffic the Zyxel Device sends out from a
connection’s initiator. If
no
displays here, this policy does not apply bandwidth
management for the outbound traffic.
Pri
- This is the priority for the incoming (the first
Pri
value) or outgoing (the second
Pri
value) traffic that matches this policy. The smaller the number, the higher the priority.
Traffic with a higher priority is given bandwidth before traffic with a lower priority. The
Zyxel Device ignores this number if the incoming and outgoing limits are both set to 0. In
this case the traffic is automatically treated as being set to the lowest priority (7)
regardless of this field’s configuration.
DSCP Marking
This is how the Zyxel Device handles the DSCP value of the incoming and outgoing
packets that match this policy.
In
- Inbound, the traffic the Zyxel Device sends to a connection’s initiator.
Out
- Outbound, the traffic the Zyxel Device sends out from a connection’s initiator.
If this field displays a DSCP value, the Zyxel Device applies that DSCP value to the route’s
outgoing packets.
preserve
means the Zyxel Device does not modify the DSCP value of the route’s
outgoing packets.
default
means the Zyxel Device sets the DSCP value of the route’s outgoing packets to 0.
The “
