QoSM overview

Developed based on the IMC Platform, the QoS Manager (QoSM) is a component that manages QoS configurations of devices. QoS configurations mitigate bandwidth, delay, jitter, and packet loss issues in the network.

QoSM provides differentiated treatment for traffic by classifying the traffic and taking actions on different classes of traffic.

QoSM enables you to use network resources more effectively and provides guaranteed services for network traffic.

Features and benefits

QoSM has the following features and benefits:

·     Configuration detection and audit—QoSM can detect QoS capability sets that are supported by devices. This can prevent administrators from deploying QoS configurations beyond devices' QoS capabilities. If the administrator deploys QoS configurations beyond devices' QoS capabilities, QoSM filters unsupported QoS configurations. QoSM can also obtain the QoS configurations on devices and detect QoS configuration changes by comparing them with the set baseline QoS configurations.

·     Quick deployment—QoSM quickly deploys common services and self-defined services to device interfaces or VLANs. Common services include voice, video, SOM, and network protocol services.

·     Simplified configuration—Deploys QoS configurations by performing Select Device Interface/VLAN > Select Policy > Generate Task operations on a graphical interface.

·     Configuration reuse—Any traffic classes can be associated with any traffic behaviors to form policies, independently of devices. A policy can be applied to different devices.

Functions

QoSM provides the following functions:

·     Quick StartProvides information about basic concepts and functions in QoSM.

·     QoS Device—Provides the following functions, which enable you to:

¡     View the QoS features supported by devices.

¡     View the QoS features that are already configured on devices.

¡     Set the baseline to monitor QoS configuration changes.

·     QoS Resource—QoS resources include traffic classes, traffic behaviors, and flow policies:

¡     Classifier—Classifies packets based on the packet characteristics, such as IP addresses, MAC addresses, and port numbers. Traffic classes provide the basis for differentiated treatment of traffic.

¡     Behavior—Defines actions to take on classified traffic, such as traffic policing, traffic shaping, rate limiting, and congestion management.

¡     QoS Policy—Defines flow polices by associating classes with behaviors. Flow polices can be deployed to interfaces or VLANs.

·     Deployment management—Includes Service Deployment and Deployment Task:

¡     Business Deploy—Predefines traffic classes and behaviors for common services, such as voice and video. Administrators need to manually configure some parameters in behaviors. To deploy the policies for common services, administrators only need to select interfaces or VLANs. Administrators can also define common services.

¡     Deployment Task—Generates deployment tasks by selecting interfaces or VLANs for preconfigured flow polices. QoSM deploys flow policies to the interfaces or VLANs at the specified time.

 


Configuration procedures

QoSM enables you to deploy QoS policies and interface QoS configurations to QoS-capable devices.

Configuration prerequisites

To deploy QoS policies and interface QoS configurations to a device, the following conditions must be met:

·     The device is QoS capable.

·     The device has been added to IMC and configured with correct SNMP and Telnet settings.

·     The device has been synchronized in IMC.

Deploying a QoS policy

You can deploy a QoS policy to multiple interfaces on multiple devices. The recommended configuration procedure is as follows:

1.     Create a classifier.

2.     Create a behavior.

3.     Create a QoS policy.

4.     Create a deployment task from the QoS policy.

Creating a classifier

A classifier classifies packets by using one or more match criteria and specifies the match policy (match any or all of the match criteria) through the logical relationship among the match criteria.

To create a classifier:

1.     Click the Service tab, as shown in Figure 1.

2.     From the navigation tree, select QoS Manager > QoS Resource > Classifier.

3.     Click Add.

For more information about creating a classifier, see "Adding a classifier."

Figure 1 Creating a classifier

 

Creating a behavior

A behavior specifies actions to take on matching packets.

To create a behavior:

1.     Click the Service tab, as shown in Figure 2.

2.     From the navigation tree, select QoS Manager > QoS Resource > Behavior.

3.     Click Add.

For more information about creating a behavior, see "Adding a behavior."

Figure 2 Creating a behavior

 

Creating a QoS policy

A QoS policy associates classifiers with behaviors; it can contain multiple classifier-behavior associations.

To create a QoS policy:

1.     Click the Service tab, as shown in Figure 3.

2.     From the navigation tree, select QoS Manager > QoS Resource > QoS Policy.

3.     Click Add.

For more information about creating a QoS policy, see "Adding a QoS policy."

Figure 3 Creating a QoS policy

 

Creating a deployment task from the QoS policy

You can use a deployment task for a QoS policy to deploy the QoS policy to device interfaces or VLANs and to monitor the deployment process.

To create a deployment task from the QoS policy:

1.     Click the Service tab, as shown in Figure 4.

2.     From the navigation tree, select QoS Manager > Deploy Task.

3.     Click Add.

QoSM provides multiple entries for creating a deployment task for a QoS policy. For more information, see "Adding an MQC deployment task."

Figure 4 Creating a deployment task from the QoS policy

 

Deploying interface QoS configurations

Interface QoS configurations can be deployed only to physical interfaces on devices. The recommended configuration procedure is as follows:

1.     Configure a CAR list, PQ list, or CQ list.

2.     Create a deployment task from interface QoS configurations.

Configuring a CAR list, PQ list, or CQ list for a device

Before configuring traffic policing for an interface, configure a CAR list for its device. Before configuring PQ or CQ for an interface, configure a PQ or CQ list for its device. This task is not needed for configuring other QoS features on an interface. Only routers support configuring CAR lists, PQ lists, and CQ lists.

To create a CAR list, PQ list, or CQ list for a device:

1.     Click the Service tab, as shown in Figure 5.

2.     From the navigation tree, select QoS Manager > QoS Device.

The QoS Device page appears.

3.     Click the Operation icon  for the device, and then select QoS Configuration Info from the menu.

Figure 5 Accessing the QoS Configuration Info page

 

4.     Click the CAR List, PQ List, or CQ List tab, as shown in Figure 6.

For information about configuring a CAR list, PQ list, or CQ list, see "CAR List", "CQ List", and "PQ List."

Figure 6 Configuring a CAR list, PQ list, or CQ list

 

Creating a deployment task for interface QoS configurations

You can use a deployment task for interface QoS configurations to deploy QoS configurations (not in the form of QoS policies) to device interfaces and to monitor the deployment process.

To create a deployment task for interface QoS configurations:

1.     Click the Service tab.

2.     From the navigation tree, select QoS Manager > Deploy Device.

The QoS Device page appears.

3.     Click the Operation icon  for the device, and then select QoS Configuration Info from the menu.

The QoS Configuration Info page appears and displays the Interface Policy Application tab.

4.     Click Configure in the Interface Configuration column for the interface that you want to configure, as shown in Figure 7.

For more information about creating a deployment task for interface QoS configurations, see "Adding a non-MQC deployment task."

Managing QoS devices

QoSM enables you to manage QoS-capable devices and provides the following management functions:

·     Device/interface QoS capability set—Enables you to view device or interface support for QoS features before deploying QoS configurations.

·     QoS configuration information—Enables you to view existing QoS configurations on a device and its interfaces and to deploy or quickly undeploy QoS configurations.

·     Baseline and auditing—Informs you of QoS configuration changes on a device or interface.

Through the preceding management functions, you can perform the following tasks in different phases of QoS configuration deployment:

·     Learn about a device's support for QoS features and existing QoS configurations on the device before deploying QoS configurations.

·     Deploy QoS configurations directly or by using deployment tasks.

·     Check whether QoS configurations are successfully deployed and monitor QoS configuration changes on the device.

Accessing the QoS Device page

The QoS Device page displays all QoS-capable devices managed by IMC in a list and is the entrance for some QoS management functions.

To add a device to the device list:

1.     Add the device to IMC.

2.     Configure correct SNMP settings for the device.

3.     Synchronize the device.

To access the QoS Device page:

Access control and bandwidth control configuration examples

This chapter provides examples for configuring access control and bandwidth control on QoSM.

Network requirements and analysis

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 10, the network structure of a company’s intranet is as follows:

The R&D department (R&D Dept.) is connected to a data center switch (SWD) through SWB. The R&D department can be configured to access the FTP server and computing server.

The Administration department (Admin Dept.), HR department (HR Dept.), and Finance department (FA Dept.) are connected to a data center switch (SWE) through router RTC. They can be configured to access the mail server, OA server, and file server.

The switch SWB and router RTC are interconnected. The R&D department can be configured to access the mail server and OA server. Other departments can be configured to access the FTP server.

Figure 10 Network diagram

 

The requirements are:

·     Deny traffic from the Administration department, HR department, and Finance department to the computing server, but permit their traffic to the FTP server.

·     Deny traffic from the R&D department to the file server but permit its traffic to the mail server and OA server.

·     Deny traffic between the R&D department and all other departments.

·     Limit the bandwidths for traffic from the FTP server to the Administration department, HR department, and Finance department to 50 Mbps each.

·     The traffic from the computing server should have a higher priority to transmit on SWD.

Requirements analysis

·     Deny packets with destination IP address 192.168.2.7 on XGE 3/1/1 of the SWA (172.10.0.1).

·     Deny packets with destination IP addresses that belong to networks 90.16.50.1/24, 90.16.50.1/24, and 90.16.50.1/24 on XGE 3/1/1 of the SWA (172.10.0.1).

·     Deny packets with destination IP address 192.168.1.3 on XGE 5/0/0 of the RTC (90.16.0.66).

·     Deny packets with destination IP addresses that belong to network 172.10.0.0/24 on XGE 5/0/0 of the RTC (90.16.0.66).

·     Limit the bandwidths to 50 Mbps for traffic with destination IP addresses that belong to networks 90.16.50.1/24, 90.16.50.1/24, or 90.16.50.1/24 on XGE 1/0/51 of the SWD (192.168.1.1).

·     Set the interface priority of XGE 1/0/50 to 5 and set the interface priority of XGE 1/0/51 to 3 on SWD (192.168.1.1).
