4. Use the controls to complete the configuration, as described in the following table.

 

 

 

Control

 

Description

 

 

 

Add New Rule

 

Type. Select one of the following rule types from the drop-down list:

 

 

Auto. Allows built-in functionality to determine the response for peering requests

 

 

(performs the best peering possible).

 

 

Accept. Accepts peering requests that match the source-destination-port pattern.

 

 

Pass. Allows pass-through peering requests that match the source and destination port

 

 

pattern.

 

 

You can configure peering rules that apply to a single port or you can configure peering

 

 

rules that apply to a port label. A port label is a label that you assign to a set of ports so

 

 

that you can reduce the number of configuration rules in your system. For detailed

 

 

information about how to configure port labels, see “Creating Port Labels” on page 113.

 

 

 

 

 

Insert Rule At. Select start, end, or a rule number from the drop-down list.

 

 

HP EFS WAN Accelerators evaluate rules in numerical order starting with rule 1. If the

 

 

conditions set in the rule match, then the rule is applied, and the system moves on to the

 

 

next packet. If the conditions set in the rule do not match, the system consults the next

 

 

rule. For example, if the conditions of rule 1 do not match, rule 2 is consulted. If rule 2

 

 

matches the conditions, it is applied, and no further rules are consulted.

 

 

 

 

 

Source Subnet. Specify the IP address for the source network. Use the following format:

 

 

XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/XX.

 

 

 

 

 

Destination Subnet. Specify the IP address for the destination subnet. Use the following

 

 

format: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/XX.

 

 

 

 

 

Port. Specify the destination port number, port label, or all. For detailed information on

 

 

port labels, see “Creating Port Labels” on page 113.

 

 

 

 

 

Peer IP. Specify the IP address for the peer to which TCP requests should spill over

 

 

when the HP EFS WAN Accelerator reaches its built-in capacity limit.

 

 

 

 

 

Description. Specify a description to help you identify the peering relationship.

 

 

 

 

 

Add Rule. Specify this option to add the rule to the list of rules for the profile.

 

 

 

 

 

Remove Selected Rules. To remove an entry, click the check box next to the and entry

 

 

and click Remove Selected Rules.

 

 

 

 

 

Move Rule. Use the Move Rule drop-down list boxes and button to change the order in

 

 

which rules are evaluated.

 

 

 

5. Click Save to save your settings permanently or click Reset to return the settings

 

 

to their previous values.

Enabling

You enable Quality of Service (QoS) in the Advanced Networking - QoS Classification

Quality of

page.

Service

You can configure QoS on HP EFS WAN Accelerators to control the prioritization of

 

different types of network traffic and to ensure that HP EFS WAN Accelerators give

 

certain network traffic (for instance, voice over IP) higher priority than other network

 

traffic.
