QoS Policies Report

The QoS Policy determines how flows are queued and marked.

The QoS Policies report displays a polled, read-only view of the QoS policy entries that exist on the appliance(s). This includes the appliance-based defaults, entries applied manually (via the WebUI or CLI), and entries that result from applying a GMS QoS Policy template.

n	Use the Shaper to define, prioritize, and name traffic classes.

n	Use the Templates tab to create and manage QoS policies.

n	Think of it as the Shaper defines and the QoS Policy assigns.

The QoS Policy's SET actions determine two things:

n	what traffic class a shaped flow -- whether optimized or pass-through -- is assigned

n	whether to trust incoming DSCP markings for LAN QoS and WAN QoS, or to remark them as they leave for the WAN
