Section 8 - Conîšżguring Client Quality of Service (QoS)
This section describes how to conîšżgure QoS settings that affect trafîšżc from the wireless clients to the AP. By using the
UAP Client QoS features, you can limit bandwidth and apply ACLs and DiffServ policies to the wireless interface. If a
VAP uses WPA Enterprise security to authenticate clients, you can conîšżgure the RADIUS server to provide per-client
QoS information.
This section describes the following features:
•) “Conguring VAP QoS Parameters” on page 88
•) “Managing Client QoS ACLs” on page 89
•) “Creating a DiffServ Class Map” on page 95
•) “Creating a DiffServ Policy Map” on page 100
•) “Conguring RADIUS-Assigned Client QoS Parameters” on page 102
Conîšżguring VAP QoS Parameters
The client QoS features on the UAP provide additional control over certain QoS aspects of wireless clients that
connect to the network, such as the amount of bandwidth an individual client is allowed to send and receive. To control
general categories of trafîšżc, such as HTTP trafîšżc or trafîšżc from a speciîšżc subnet, you can conîšżgure ACLs and assign
them to one or more VAPs.
In addition to controlling general trafîšżc categories, Client QoS allows you to conîšżgure per-client conditioning of various
micro-ows through Differentiated Services (DiffServ). DiffServ policies are a useful tool for establishing general micro-
ow denition and treatment characteristics that can be applied to each wireless client, both inbound and outbound,
when it is authenticated on the network.
From the VAP QoS Parameters page, you can enable the Client QoS feature, specify client bandwidth limits, and
select the ACLs and DiffServ policies to use as default values for clients associated with the VAP when the client does
not have their own attributes deîšżned by a RADIUS server.
To conîšżgure the Client QoS administrative mode and to conîšżgure the QoS settings for a VAP, click the VAP QoS
Parameters tab.

Field Description
Client QoS Global
Admin Mode
Enable or disable Client QoS operation on the AP.
Changing this setting will not affect the WMM settings you conîšżgure on the QoS page.
Radio For dual-radio APs, select Radio 1 or Radio 2 to specify which radio to conîšżgure.
VAP Specify the VAP that will have the Client QoS settings that you conîšżgure.
The QoS settings you conîšżgure for the selected VAP will not affect clients that access the
network through other VAPs.
