Features   Description 
QoS Overview 
For network traffic, the Quality of Service (QoS) involves bandwidth, delay, 
and packet loss rate during traffic forwarding process. This document 
describes: 
z  Introduction to QoS 
z  Introduction to QoS Service Models 
z  QoS Techniques Overview 
QoS Configuration 
Approaches 
Two approaches are available for you to configure QoS: policy-based and 
non policy-based. This document describes: 
z  QoS Configuration Approach Overview 
z  Configuring a QoS Policy 
Priority Mapping  
The priorities of a packet determine its transmission priority. There are two 
types of priority: priorities carried in packets and priorities locally assigned 
for scheduling only.  
When a packet enters the device from a port, the device assigns a set of 
QoS priority parameters to the packet based on a certain priority and 
sometimes may modify its priority, according to certain rules depending on 
device status. This process is called priority mapping. 
Traffic Policing, Traffic 
Shaping, and Line 
Rate 
This document describes: 
z  Traffic Policing, Traffic Shaping, and Line Rate Overview 
z  Configuring Traffic Policing 
z  Configuring GTS 
z  Configuring the Line Rate 
Congestion 
Management 
The key to congestion management is how to define a dispatching policy 
for resources to decide the order of forwarding packets when congestion 
occurs. This document describes: 
z  Configuring SP Queuing 
z  Configure WRR Queuing 
z  Configuring WFQ Queuing 
z  Configuring SP+WRR Queues 
Traffic Filtering  
This document describes how to filter in or filter out a class of traffic by 
associating the class with a traffic filtering action. 
Priority Marking  
This document describes how to marking the priority of the packets by 
associating a class with a behavior configured with the priority marking 
action 
Traffic Redirecting  
Traffic redirecting is the action of redirecting the packets matching the 
specific match criteria to a certain location for processing. This document 
describes how to configure traffic redirecting. 
Traffic Mirroring  
Traffic mirroring is the action of copying the specified packets to the 
specified destination for packet analyzing and monitoring. This document 
describes how to configure traffic mirroring. 
Class-Based 
Accounting  
Class-based accounting collects statistics on a per-traffic class basis. This 
document describes how to configure class-based accounting. 
User Profile  
User profile provides a configuration template to save predefined 
configurations. This document describes: 
z  Creating a User Profile 
z  Configuring a User Profile 
z  Enabling a User Profile
