(config firewall qos 2)> interface
b. Set the interface. For example:
(config firewall qos 2)> interface /network/interface/eth1
(config firewall qos 2)>
6. (Optional) Set the maximum egress bandwidth of the interface, in megabits, allocated to this
binding.
(config firewall qos 2)> bandwidth int
(config firewall qos 2)>
where int isan integer between 1 and 1000. Typically, this should be95% of the available
bandwidth. The default is 95.
7. Create a policy for the binding:
At least onepolicy is required for each binding. Each policy can contain up to 30 rules.
a. Change to the policy node of the configuration:
(config firewall qos 2)> policy
(config firewall qos 2 policy)>
b. Add a policy:
(config firewall qos 2 policy)> add end
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)>
New QoSbinding policies are enabled by default. To disable:
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)> enable false
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)>
c. (Optional) Set a label for the new binding policy:
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)> label my_binding_policy
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)>
d. Set a value for the amount of available bandwidth allocated to the policy, relative to other
policiesfor this binding.
The larger the weight, with respect to the other policy weights, the larger portion of the
maximum bandwidth is available for thispolicy. For example, if a binding contains three
policies, and each policy containsa weight of 10, each policy will be allocated one third of
the total interface bandwidth.
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)> weight int
(config firewall qos 2 policy 0)>
where int isany integer between 1 and 65535. The default is 10.
e. Set the maximum delay before the transmission of packets. Alower number means that
the packetswill be scheduled more quickly for transmission.
