This chapter discusses the basic operations within QoS Manager windows.
Topics
• Add
• Modify
• Delete
• Inline Table Editing
• Apply
4 Basic Operations
AlliedView™-EMS 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 11 of 146
Page 12
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 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 12 of 146
Page 13
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 non-contiguous 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 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 13 of 146
Page 14
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 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 14 of 146
Page 15
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 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 15 of 146
Page 16
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 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 16 of 146
Page 17
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 QoS-based 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.
.

AlliedView™-EMS 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 17 of 146
Page 18
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 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 18 of 146
Page 19
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.

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
AlliedView™-EMS 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 80 of 146
Page 81
happens, any attempt to modify the classifier will result in the error message:
"Parameter VLANPRIORITY, value too high; maximum is 7."
• 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.
The hexadecimal value 21 will be the actual value configured.
• The current firmware version does not allow Minimum and Maximum bandwidth
value of '0kbps', '0mbps' or '0gbps'. Attempting to assign these values will result in
the error message "Parameter MINBANDWIDTH, value too low; minimum is
1kbps." and "Parameter MAXBANDWIDTH, value too low; minimum is 1kbps.".
• The current firmware version recognizes 'DEC MOP REM CDONS' as valid
protocol attribute of classifier property instead of 'DEC MOP REM CONS' value. As
a result, both CLI and QoS Manager will return an error when set to latter value.
AlliedView™-EMS 3.11 QoS Manager User’s Guide Page 81 of 146
Page 82
• The current firmware version returns the Protocol parameter as a numeric value.
However, QoS Manager provides descriptive names to make it easier for users to
set the appropriate value.
• The current firmware version does not allow 'Source L4 Mask' and 'Destination L4
Mask' classifier properties to accept its minimum value of '0000'. As a result, both
CLI and QoS Manager only accept '0001' as its minimum value.
• Values entered for the DTC Storm Rate attribute of policy property are
automatically rounded off to the nearest multiple of 1,000 kbps for 'Mbps' and
1,000,000 kbps for 'Gbps'.
• Values entered for the Storm Rate attribute of policy property are automatically
rounded off to the nearest multiple of 1,000 kbps for 'Mbps' and 1,000,000 kbps for
'Gbps'.
• Values entered for the Maximum and Minimum Burst Size attribute of policy
property are automatically rounded off.
• Values entered for the Default Traffic Class Maximum and Minimum Burst Size
attribute of policy property are automatically round off to bytes.
• Values entered for the Default Traffic Class Maximum and Minimum Bandwidth of
policy property are automatically round off.
• When setting the Default Traffic Class Action policy property to
'FORWARD,SENDMIRROR', the current firmware version omits the value
'FORWARD'. As a result, both CLI and QoS Manager return the value
'SENDMIRROR' when retrieved.
