To create a QoS rule:
1. Click the arrow next to New.
2. Click one of the available positioning options for the rule: Top Rule, Bottom Rule, Above
Selected, or Under Selected.
The Add Rule window opens. It shows the rule fields in two manners:
n
A rule summary sentence with default values.
n
A table with the rule base fields in a table.
3. Click the links in the rule summary or the table cells to select network objects or options
that fill out the rule base fields. See the descriptions above.
Note - You can select for a specified rule to have a specified guarantee and/or
limit or be marked as low latency traffic. In case of the latter, there is a single
maximum limit percentage for ALL low latency traffic which can be configured
globally. See above.
4. To match only for encrypted (VPN) traffic, select Match only for encrypted traffic. The
Service column shows "encrypted" if selected.
5. To limit the rule to a specified time range, select Apply only during this time and select
the start and end times. Only connections that begin during this time range are
inspected.
6. DiffServ Mark is a way to mark connections so a third party handles it. To mark packets
that are given priority on the public network based on their DSCP, select DiffServ Mark
(1-63) and select a value. To use this option, your ISP or private WAN must support
DiffServ. You can get the DSCP value from your ISP or private WAN administrator.
7. In the Write a comment field, enter optional text that describes the rule. This is shown as
a comment below the rule.
8. Click Apply
