The set of rules
included in a role, along with any access or CoS defaults, determine how all network
traffic of any client assigned to the role will be handled. For example, a Doctor
role can be assigned a higher priority CoS and default access control due to the
sensitivity and urgency of services that a doctor provides to patients.

Go to .
-
Select Add, or select an existing
Class of Service from the list.
-
Configure the following parameters:
- Name
- Naming should reflect the priority for your
organization and be easily recognized by your IT team, such as Bulk
Data or Critical Data.
- Priority
- Define how the Layer 2 priority of the packet
will be marked. Priority 0 is the highest priority.
-
For ToS/DSCP, define how the Layer 3 ToS/DSCP will be marked. Enter
a hexadecimal value in the 0x
(DSCP:) field, or select Configure to
open the ToS/DSCP
dialog box.
-
In the CoS dialog box, set the
Mask value.
- Mask
- Select a hexadecimal value to use for the
ToS/DSCP value. For example, if the mask is 0xF0, then only the four
most significant bits of the ToS of the received packets are marked.
So, if the received ToS is 0x33 and the ToS marking is set to 0x2A,
then the resulting ToS is 0x23.
