If you want to classify the traffic by an ingress interface, select an interface from the

From

Interface

drop-down list box.

Ether Type

Select a predefined application to configure a class for the matched traffic.

If you select

, you also need to configure source or destination MAC address, IP address,

DHCP options, DSCP value or the protocol type.

If you select

802.1Q

, you can configure an 802.1p priority level.

Source

Address

Select the check box and enter the source IP address in dotted decimal notation. A blank

source IP address means any source IP address.

field, select the check box and enter the port

number(s) of the source.

MAC

Select the check box and enter the source MAC address of the packet.

MAC Mask

Type the mask for the specified MAC address to determine which bits a packet’s MAC

address should match.

Enter “f” for each bit of the specified source MAC address that the traffic’s MAC address

should match. Enter “0” for the bit(s) of the matched traffic’s MAC address, which can be of

any hexadecimal character(s). For example, if you set the MAC address to

00:13:49:00:00:00 and the mask to ff:ff:ff:00:00:00, a packet with a MAC address of

00:13:49:12:34:56 matches this criteria.

Ether Type

field.

Select this option and select a priority level (between 0 and 7) from the drop-down list box.

"0" is the lowest priority level and "7" is the highest.

VLAN ID

This field is available only when you select

802.1Q

in the

Ether Type

field.

Select this option and specify a VLAN ID number.

TCP ACK

This field is available only when you select

in the

Ether Type

field.

If you select this option, the matched TCP packets must contain the ACK (Acknowledge)

flag.

Exclude

Select this option to exclude the packets that match the specified criteria from this classifier.

DSCP Mark

This field is available only when you select

in the

Ether Type

field.

If you select

Mark

, enter a DSCP value with which the Device replaces the DSCP field in the

packets.

If you select

Unchange

, the Device keep the DSCP field in the packets.

802.1P Mark

Select a priority level with which the Device replaces the IEEE 802.1p priority field in the

packets.

If you select

Unchange

, the Device keep the 802.1p priority field in the packets.

VLAN ID

If you select

Remark

, enter a VLAN ID number with which the Device replaces the VLAN ID

of the frames.

If you select

Remove

, the Device deletes the VLAN ID of the frames before forwarding

them out.

If you select

Add

, the Device treat all matched traffic untagged and add a second VLAN ID.

If you select

Unchange

, the Device keep the VLAN ID in the packets.

Forward to

Interface

Select a WAN interface through which traffic of this class will be forwarded out. If you select

Unchange

, the Device forward traffic of this class according to the default routing table.

Click this to create a new entry.

This is the index number of the entry.

Status

This field displays whether the policer is active or not. A yellow bulb signifies that this

policer is active. A gray bulb signifies that this policer is not active.

Name

This field displays the descriptive name of this policer.

Regulated

This field displays the name of a QoS classifier

Meter Type

This field displays the type of QoS metering algorithm used in this policer.

Rule

These are the rates and burst sizes against which the policer checks the traffic of the

member QoS classes.

Action

This shows the how the policer has the Device treat different types of traffic belonging to

the policer’s member QoS classes.

Modify

Click the

Edit

icon to edit the policer.

Click the

Click

Add

new Policer

in the

Policer Setup

screen or the

Edit

icon next to a policer to show the

following screen.

Policer Setup: Add/Edit

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 53

Policer Setup: Add/Edit

LABEL

DESCRIPTION

Active

Select the check box to activate this policer.

Name

Enter the descriptive name of this policer.

Meter Type

This shows the traffic metering algorithm used in this policer.

The

Simple Token Bucket

algorithm uses tokens in a bucket to control when traffic can be

transmitted. Each token represents one byte. The algorithm allows bursts of up to

bytes

which is also the bucket size.

The

Single Rate Three Color Marker

(srTCM) is based on the token bucket filter and

identifies packets by comparing them to the Committed Information Rate (CIR), the

Committed Burst Size (CBS) and the Excess Burst Size (EBS).

The

Two Rate Three Color Marker

(trTCM) is based on the token bucket filter and

identifies packets by comparing them to the Committed Information Rate (CIR) and the

Peak Information Rate (PIR).

Committed

Rate

Specify the committed rate. When the incoming traffic rate of the member QoS classes is

less than the committed rate, the device applies the conforming action to the traffic.

Committed

Burst Size

Specify the committed burst size for packet bursts. This must be equal to or less than the

peak burst size (two rate three color) or excess burst size (single rate three color) if it is also

configured.

This is the maximum size of the (first) token bucket in a traffic metering algorithm.

Conforming

Action

Specify what the Device does for packets within the committed rate and burst size (green-

marked packets).

•

Pass:

Send the packets without modification.

•

DSCP Mark:

Change the DSCP mark value of the packets. Enter the DSCP mark value to

use.

Non-

Conforming

Action

Specify what the Device does for packets that exceed the excess burst size or peak rate and

burst size (red-marked packets).

•

Drop:

Discard the packets.

•

DSCP Mark:

Change the DSCP mark value of the packets. Enter the DSCP mark value to

use. The packets may be dropped if there is congestion on the network.
