    Creating QoS Policies

    Use the Traffic > DiffServ (Configure Policy) page to create a policy map that can be attached to multiple interfaces. A policy map is used to group one or more class map statements. A policy map can then be bound by a service policy to one or more interfaces.

    Configuring QoS policies requires several steps. A class map must first be configured to indicate the boundary parameters used for monitoring inbound traffic. A policy map may contain one or more classes based on previously defined class maps.

    In addition, the flow rate of inbound traffic can be monitored and the response to conforming and non-conforming traffic set.
