Step 1: Add Packet Identification Rules
To recognize management traffic, the system needs to recognize ARP requests/responses and any traffic coming from or
going to the management station.
A. Confirm the Attributes of the Existing ARP PIR
The default QoS configuration contains the PIR called “ARP,” which recognizes ARP requests/responses by the
protocol number 0x806 in the Ethernet Type field of the Ethernet packet. Confirm that the ARP PIR parameters are
correct, as follows:
1. Click Configure > QoS > QoS PIR.
2. Click Details next to the ARP PIR.
3. Confirm the following attributes:
• Rule Name: ARP
• Status: Enable
• Enable Ether Type Rule: Yes (box is checked)
– Ether Type: 1
– Ether Value: 08:06
B. Create New PIRs to Recognize Management Traffic
To recognize the traffic coming from or going to the management station, the system must contain two additional PIRs:
one with either the destination IP address or the destination MAC address equal to the management station’s IP or
MAC address, and another with either the source IP address or the source MAC address equal to the management
station’s IP or MAC address.
1. Click Configure > QoS > QoS PIR.
2. Click Add Table Entries.
3. First you will configure the Destination Address PIR.
Enter the Rule Name: Management Station DST MAC Addr if you are using a MAC addresses, or Management
Station DST IP Addr if you are using a IP addresses.
4. Set the Entry Status to Enable.
5. Click Add. The DST Management PIR will be added to the PIR list.
6. Click Details next to the DST Management PIR you just created.
7. Scroll down to the Destination IP Table or the Destination MAC Table, depending on your configuration
requirements, and click Add Table Entries.
8. Enter the following information:
• IP Address or MAC Address: IP address or MAC Address of management station
• IP Mask or MAC Mask: 255.255.255.255 (for IP Mask) or FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF (for MAC mask)
9. Click Add.
10. Return to the QoS PIR tab, and click Add Table Entries.
11. Now you will configure the Source Address PIR. Enter the Rule Name:
Enter the Rule Name: Management Station SRC MAC Addr if you are using a MAC addresses, or Management
Station SRC IP Addr
if you are using a IP addresses.
12. Set the Entry Status to Enable.
13. Click Add. The SRC Management PIR will be added to the PIR list.
14. Click Details next to the SRC Management PIR you just created.
15. Scroll down to the Source IP Table or the Source MAC Table, depending on your configuration requirements,
and click Add Table Entries.
16. Enter the following information:
