1 Overview
QoS Manager is a tool that enables you to configure Quality of Service or Class
of Service on a device.
Topics
• Starting QoS Manager
• Main Window
• Basic Operations
• Menus
• Device Support
1 Overview
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 5 of 128
2 Starting QoS Manager
QoS Manager can be started from Device Manager or from the command line.
In a Windows environment, QoS Manager can be started from the AlliedViewEMS program folder or from the Run command of the Start menu.
You can start QoS Manager from Device Manager by clicking on Tool > QoS
Manager on the main menu or by clicking on the QoS Manager icon
toolbar. If Device Manager is connected to a device, target host information is
automatically passed on to QoS Manager so that the QoS configuration of the
device can be retrieved and displayed in QoS Manager's main window.
2 Starting QoS Manager
on the
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 6 of 128
3 Main Window
When started, QoS Manager displays one of the following windows, depending
on how it is started.
Topics:
• Initial Window
• QoS/CoS Information Window
3 Main Window
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 7 of 128
3.1 Initial Window
If the target host is not specified, or if one or more connection parameters do
not match what is configured on the host, the following window appears.
Initial Window
To specify a target host from this window, select File → Open . If the target
host is a device model that is supported by QoS Manager, the QoS/CoS
Information Window displaying the target host's QoS/CoS configuration will
appear.
3 Main Window
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 8 of 128
3.2 QoS/CoS Information Window
Depending on whether the target host is a QoS-based or a CoS-based device,
QoS Manager will display the appropriate information window.
QoS Information Window
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 9 of 128
CoS Information Window
The QoS/CoS Information Window displays the QoS/CoS configuration of the
device being managed. QoS/CoS information is organized via tabs with each tab
corresponding to a QoS/CoS element. Each QoS/CoS element is presented in a
table format with each row representing one instance of the element.
QoS/CoS elements, as well as the fields available under each element, may vary
from one device series to another. Refer to Section 6 - Device Support for the
specific attributes displayed for each device series.

4 Basic Operations
This chapter discusses the basic operations within QoS Manager windows.
Topics
• Add
• Modify
• Delete
• Inline Table Editing
• Apply
4 Basic Operations
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 11 of 128
4.1 Add
The Add operation is only available on QoS-based devices and only for the
following QoS elements:
• Classifiers
• Flow Groups
• Traffic Classes
• Policies
To add a new instance of a QoS element, click on the Add button to display the
Add window.
The Add window is presented as a two-column table (Property Sheet). The left
column represents the available fields for the QoS element, while the right
column represents their corresponding values.
During an Add operation, all field values are initially blank.
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 12 of 128
To configure a field, click on the value cell of that field. Depending on the field
being configured, the value cell will become one of the following:
• Editable - a value is keyed in manually
• Dropdown Selection - a single value is selected from a pre-defined list of
values
• Editable Dropdown Selection - a single value can either be selected from
a pre-defined list of values or keyed in manually
• Multiple Selection - one or more values can be selected from a pre-
defined list of values. To select multiple contiguous values, hold down the
Shift key while selecting items from the list. To select multiple noncontiguous values, hold down the Ctrl key while selecting items from the
list.
After setting all the desired fields, you can complete the Add operation by
clicking the OK button.
If you wish to cancel the operation, click on the Cancel button.
4 Basic Operations
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 13 of 128
4.2 Modify
The Modify operation is only available on QoS-based devices and only for the
following QoS elements:
• Classifiers
• Flow Groups
• Traffic Classes
• Policies
To modify the field values of an existing instance of a QoS element, select a
table row from the QoS Information Window then click on the Modify button.
The Modify window is the same as the Add window except that the value cells
will now contain the values which were previously set.
The procedure for modifying a field value is the same as that used in the Add
operation.
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 14 of 128
After modifying or setting all the desired fields, you can complete the Modify
operation by clicking the OK button.
If you wish to cancel the operation without applying the changes, click on the
Cancel button.
4 Basic Operations
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 15 of 128
4.3 Delete
The Delete operation is only available on QoS-based devices and only for the
following QoS elements:
• Classifiers
• Flow Groups
• Traffic Classes
• Policies
To delete an instance of a QoS element, select a table row from the QoS
Information Window then click on the Delete button.
As a safety measure, before the selected element is deleted, you will be asked to
confirm the action.
4 Basic Operations
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 16 of 128
4.4 Inline Table Editing
Inline table editing is available for both QoS-based and CoS-based devices. It
makes it relatively easy to manipulate table data directly on-screen without
having to use a Submit button or to go into some kind of 'edit' mode. For QoSbased devices, inline table editing is used to configure table fields in the Add and
Modify operations as well as in the Ports and Scheduling tabs. For CoS-based
devices, inline table editing is used to configure table fields in all tabs.
Inline table editing is similar to the process of configuring a field as described in
the Add operation. Refer to Section 4.1 - Add
Note - When modifying a field that contains a non-blank value to blank, the
following rules are observed:
.
• If "none" is a valid value, field will be set to "none".
• If "any" is a valid value, field will be set to "any".
• If neither "none" nor "any" is valid, field will be set to the last accepted
value for that field.
4 Basic Operations
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 17 of 128
4.5 Apply
QoS/Cos configuration changes made through Add/Modify/Delete operations or
Inline Table Editing will not be immediately reflected on the device. QoS
Manager just stores these changes locally until an Apply operation is performed.
To apply QoS/CoS configuration changes to the device, click on the Apply button.
As a safety measure, before the operation is performed, you will be asked to
confirm the action.
During the operation, a progress window will be displayed to indicate the status
of the operation. At any point in time, you may cancel the operation by clicking
the Cancel button.
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 18 of 128
When the operation is completed, a Results/Summary window will be displayed.
This window will indicate whether the operation was successful or not. Also, this
window will display a log of the commands that were issued to the device in the
course of the operation.
If the operation was successful, the Save Configuration button will be enabled to
allow you to save the applied changes to the configuration file of the device.
To close the Results/Summary window, click on the OK button.
After the Results/Summary window closes, QoS Manager will perform a refresh
operation by retrieving the QoS/CoS Settings from the device. This is done to
ensure that the settings between the device and QoS Manager are synchronized.

• Although Flow Group ID, Traffic Class ID and Policy ID can range from 0
to more than 64, the current firmware version only allows up to a
maximum of 64 instances to be created for Flow Group, Traffic Class and
Policy.
• Ports cannot be assigned to a Policy unless the Policy is connected to a
Classifier through Flow Groups and Traffic Classes.
• The Description property of Flow Group, Traffic Class and Policy accepts
up to 31 characters when configured through the CLI and up to 15
characters when configured through QoS Manager. As such, setting a
QoS element's Description property to more than 15 characters using
the CLI will result in an error message when an attempt is made to
modify that QoS element through QoS Manager.

6.6.8 Notes
• Configuring the Port and VLAN properties of a Flow Group, Traffic Class
or Policy will have no effect unless the Action or Default Traffic Class
Action property is set to 'SENDVLANPORT'.
• Values entered for the Maximum Bandwidth traffic class property are
rounded up to the nearest multiple of 648.
• When the Protocol property is configured, the Ethernet Format property
should also be configured.
• To configure the Storm Status property, the switch must be in enhanced
mode.
• When the Storm Status property is configured, the Storm Window and
Storm Rate properties should also be configured.
• Values entered for the Storm Window property are automatically
rounded off to the nearest hundreds.
• When the IP Protocol classifier property is configured to '0', the current
firmware version automatically converts this value to 'NONTCPUDP'.
• Valid values for the VLAN Priority classifier property are 'any' and values
in the range [0-7] inclusive. However, when VLAN Priority is set to 'any',
the current firmware version automatically converts the 'any' value to
'4294967295'. When this happens, any attempt to modify the classifier
will result in the error message: "Parameter VLANPRIORITY, value too
high; maximum is 7."
• When the Protocol property is configured, the Ethernet Format property
should also be configured.
AlliedView™-EMS 3.10 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 82 of 128
• To configure the Storm Status property, the switch must be in enhanced
mode.
• When the Storm Status property is configured, the Storm Window and
Storm Rate properties should also be configured.
• Values entered for the Storm Window property are automatically
rounded off to the nearest hundreds.
• When the TAG Protocol ID classifier property is not set to any value and
the VLAN classifier property is set to 'any', the current firmware version
automatically sets the TAG Protocol ID to '8100'.
• Values entered for the Length scheduling property are rounded up to the
nearest multiple of 16.
• When the Maximum Bandwidth and Minimum Bandwidth traffic class
properties are set to any of the following values, the current firmware
version automatically converts these values to '16998400 kbps':
o 1600000kbps
o 16000mbps
o 16gbps
When this happens, any attempt to modify the traffic class will result in
the error message: "Invalid value."
• If the Premarking traffic class property is set to 'USEMARKVALUE' and
the Mark Value traffic class property is set to an integer value, they
cannot be configured to 'none' at the same time. Premarking must be
configured to 'none' first before Mark Value can be configured to 'none'.
• If the Default Traffic Class Premarking policy property is set to
'USEMARKVALUE' and the Mark Value policy property is set to an
integer value, they cannot be configured to 'none' at the same time.
Default Traffic Class Premarking must be configured to 'none' first before
Mark Value can be configured to 'none'.
• The actual value of bytevalue that is configured for the EIPByte01-16
classifier properties is computed by performing a bitwise AND operation
between the bytevalue and bytemask values supplied.
Ex.
bytevalue = 25 (00100101)
bytemask = 3B (00111011)
AND = 21 (00100001)
The hexadecimal value 21 will be the actual value configured.

location.
• (optionally) bytemask,
which is a 2-digit
hexadecimal number.
This specifies an eight-bit
binary mask to apply to
the field. When a bit is
set to 1 in the mask, the
value of the bit at the
same position in the byte
value is used to
determine a match. A 0
in the mask means that
the corresponding bit is
ignored. The default is ff,
which means the
classifier matches against
all bits in the byte.

EIPByte01-16 These parameters each specify
the properties of a single byte
field to match in the Layer 3
header and data of a non-IPv4
and non-IPv6 packet. The
eipbyte01 parameter must be
used as the first byte field, and
additional byte fields must
increment sequentially, for
example eipbyte01, eipbyte02,
eipbyte03. Each field must have
a greater offset than the field
that precedes it.
For each byte field you want to
match, specify a byteoffset and
a bytevalue, and optionally, a
bytemask.
This can also be set by entering
a 2-byte hexadecimal number
00-FF.
Each entry can be set by
entering the following value:

• byteoffset is a decimal
number in the range 0 to
65. This specifies the
location of the byte to
match. It refers to the
offset from the start of
Layer 3, after the Layer 2
encapsulation format of
an Ethernet frame.
• bytevalue is a 2-digit
hexadecimal number.
This specifies the value
of the byte at the frame
position determined by
the byteoffset. The
classifier matches
packets that have this
value at this location.
• (optional) bytemask is a
2-digit hexadecimal
number. This specifies an
eight-bit binary mask to
apply to the field. When
a bit is set to 1 in the
mask, the value of the bit
at the same position in
the byte is used to
determine a match. If
the bytemask is 0, the
corresponding bit is
ignored. The default is ff,
which means the
classifier matches against
all bits in the byte.
