The quality of service binding configuration window is displayed.
5. Enable the binding.
6. (Optional) Type a Label for the binding.
7. Select an Interface to queue egress packets on. The binding will only match traffic that is being
sent out on this interface.
8. (Optional) For Interface bandwidth (Mbit), set the maximum egress bandwidth of the
interface, in megabits, allocated to this binding. Typically, this should be 95% of the available
bandwidth. Allowed value is any integer between 1 and 1000.
9. Create a policy for the binding:
At least one policy is required for each binding. Each policy can contain up to 30 rules.
a. Click to expand Policy.
b. For Add Policy, click .
The QoS binding policy configuration window is displayed.
New QoS binding policies are enabled by default. To disable, toggle off Enable.
c. (Optional) Type a Label for the binding policy.
d. For Weight, type a value for the amount of available bandwidth allocated to the policy,
relative to other policies for this binding.
The larger the weight, with respect to the other policy weights, the larger portion of the
maximum bandwidth is available for this policy. For example, if a binding contains three
policies, and each policy contains a weight of 10, each policy will be allocated one third of
the total interface bandwidth.
e. For Latency, type the maximum delay before the transmission of packets. A lower latency
means that the packets will be scheduled more quickly for transmission.
