A QCL (QoS Control List) is the list table of QCEs containing QoS control entries that classify to a specific
QoS class on specific traffic objects. Each accessible traffic object contains an identifier to its QCL.
The privileges determine specific traffic object to specific QoS class. A QCE (QoS Control Entry)
describes the QoS class associated with a particular QCE ID.
Advanced per flow QoS
: Apart from the basic QoS classification mentioned above, a QCL is provided to
choose any traffic flow based on Layer 2 -4 packet headers and classify then to a particular QoS class.
A complete configuration option for type of flow and the various QoS values are provided as a QCE.
Some of the often used flows are VLAN based service, IP flows, TCP sessions, etc.
The QCL Configuration is a table of QCEs, containing QoS control entries that classify to a specific QoS
class on specific traffic objects. QoS class associated with a particular QCE ID. There are six QCE frame
types: Ethernet Type, VLAN, UDP/TCP Port, DSCP, TOS, and Tag Priority. Frames can be classified by
one of 4 different QoS classes: "Low", "Normal", "Medium", and "High" for individual application.
The QoS Control List configuration page shows the QoS Control List (QCL), which is made up of the
QCEs. Each row describes a QCE that is defined. The S4224 supports up to 1024 QCEs.
