How to Configure QoS Links
This screen allows you to maintain QoS links. Links correspond to a satellite modem (or a set of satellite
modems in 1:1 redundancy) that will be polled to ascertain the current transmit-rate capacity. If no
satellite modems are to be polled, then a ‘clear sky rate’ may be specified. Each link sets a cap on the
maximum transmit-rate for all of the ‘Groups’ that are members of this link.
A list of previously defined links will be displayed. An existing entry may be chosen by clicking on the link
name. Other buttons at the bottom of the screen are as follows:

link name.
Links
Name:
This field is a logical name that is
used as a reference for the
‘Member of’ field when ‘Groups’
are defined. This field must be
unique and must be entered.
Enabled:
This selects whether the link
definition is enabled or not. If
disabled then all filters
associated with the groups that
are members of this link become
inoperative.
Comment:
This field provides a place to
store any user defined comment
to describe the rationale for this
link definition.
Clear sky data rate (kbps):
This is the output data rate that
will be used if the FX is unable to
read a rate from the modem or if
modem polling is disabled.
