Regulating Network Access” section on page 8.
Information About ISG Policies for Regulating Network Access
Before you configure ISG policies for regulating network access, you should understand the following
concept:
• Methods of Regulating Network Access, page 2
Methods of Regulating Network Access
ISG supports the following methods of regulating network access. Each of these methods can be applied
to an ISG session and can be dynamically updated.
Modular QoS CLI (MQC) Policies
QoS policies configured using the MQC are supported for subscriber sessions only. MQC policies cannot
be applied to ISG services.
ISG Policing
ISG policing supports policing of upstream and downstream traffic. ISG policing differs from policing
configured using the MQC in that ISG policing can be configured in service profiles to support policing
of traffic flows. MQC policies cannot be configured in service profiles. ISG policing can also be
configured in user profiles and service profiles to support session policing.
How to Configure ISG Policies for Regulating Network Access
This section contains procedures for configuring ISG policing. See the “Additional References” section
on page 7 for references to information on how to configure MQC policies and support for dynamic
updates to policies for regulating network access.
