Configuring a QoS Policy for Specific Protocols

This feature prioritizes network traffic on the basis of these specific protocol types:

IPIPXARPDECNetAppleTalkSNANetBEUIThe Protocol page displays the following:

Protocol—Lists the network protocols for which you can configure a prioritization policy.

Priority—The priority assigned to traffic for a given protocol policy. For example, assigning a priority of 7 (high priority) to a given protocol means that all packets implementing that protocol have the highest priority level. The default setting for any protocol is No override, which means that no prioritizing policy exists for that protocol type.

Modify Selected Policy button—Displays the page used for changing the priority setting for the selected protocol.

Apply All Protocol Policies button—Configures the protocol policy on the QoS-capable, discovered HP switches on the network. If you have added, deleted, or changed any protocol policies, you must click on this button before proceeding.

Return button—Returns you to the Main QoS page.
