Configure QoS | User Profile

First create a new user profile, or select an existing user profile to edit. Go to:

Configure > Network Policies or to

Configure > Common Objects > Policy > User Profiles.

Extreme Networks devices can apply QoS to traffic originating from members of user profiles to prioritize traffic by category, set rate limits and traffic forwarding rules for each traffic class, and set the maximum traffic forwarding rate and scheduling weight at two levels: for individual users in a user profile and for all users to whom the user profile applies. Through the rate control and queuing profile, you define QoS policing rates and scheduling weights at the individual user level. In the QoS section in a user profile configuration, you define the rates and weights at the user profile level. Through the combined configuration of forwarding mechanisms and rate limits, you control how a device schedules traffic forwarding.

  1. On the QOS tab, turn on Quality of Service (QoS).
  2. Configure the Rate Limit per User Profile per AP to set the aggregate rate limit for all the users in the user profile.
  3. Select Manage Rate Limit per Client.
    1. Set the Rate Limit Per Client from 0 to 2000 Mbps (0-2000000 Kbps).
    2. Set a weight percentage for each of the seven traffic classes in Traffic Queue Management Per User per AP, and set other details as required.
    3. Select Save.
  4. Type the Scheduling Weight.
    Note

    Note

    Devices forward traffic of a higher class and greater weight faster than traffic of a lower class and lesser weight.
  5. Select a QoS classification system from the Mark outgoing traffic using list.

    Extreme Networks devices can apply priority and class mappings to outgoing traffic based on either of the standard QoS classification systems.

  6. To add a marker map, see Configure Marker Maps.
  7. Continue configuring the user profile, or select SAVE USER PROFILE.
