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

Description

 

 

 

Add New Mappings

 

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

 

 

ordered list of rules where each rule is the DSCP level used on the inner connection for

 

 

connections matching the source IP subnet, the destination IP subnet and, optionally, the

 

 

destination port fields.

 

 

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 network. Use the

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

 

Port. Specify the port number or 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.

 

 

For the MAPI data channel, specify port 7830 and the corresponding DSCP level.

 

 

For the FTP data channel, specify port 20 and the corresponding DSCP level. Setting

 

 

QoS for port 20 on the client-side HP EFS WAN Accelerator effects passive FTP, while

 

 

setting the QoS for port 20 on the server-side HP EFS WAN Accelerator effects port

 

 

active FTP.

 

 

 

 

 

DSCP. Specify the DSCP level (0-63). Specify a DSCP level to use instead of the

 

 

existing DSCP level. If you do not define a DSCP level, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator

 

 

uses the existing DSCP level.

 

 

IMPORTANT: If your connections already have a DSCP level and you do not define

 

 

one in the Management Console, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator uses the existing DSCP

 

 

level for the connection between the HP EFS WAN Accelerators. If you define a DSCP

 

 

level in the Management Console, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator overrides the existing

 

 

DSCP level and the value that you defined is applied.

 

 

 

 

 

Description. Specify a description of the QoS rule.

 

 

 

 

 

Add Rule. Click Add Rule to add a rule to the QoS rule list.

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

click Remove Selected Rules.
