Creating Services, QoS Profiles, and Bandwidth Profiles

When you create inbound and outbound firewall rules, you use firewall objects such as services, QoS profiles, bandwidth profiles, and schedules to narrow down the firewall rules:

•Services. A service narrows down the firewall rule to an application and a port number.

•QoS profiles. A quality of service (QoS) profile defines the relative priority of an IP packet for traffic that matches the firewall rule.

•Bandwidth Profiles. A bandwidth profile allocates and limits traffic bandwidth for the LAN users to which a firewall rule is applied.

•Schedules. A schedule narrows down the period during which a firewall rule is applied. For information about specifying schedules, see “Setting a Schedule to Block or Allow Specific Traffic” on page 5-39.

Adding Customized Services

Services are functions performed by server computers at the request of client computers. You can configure up to 125 custom services.
