QoS Priority The priority assigned to IP packets of this service. The priorities
are defined by Type of Service in the Internet Protocol Suite
standards, RFC 1349. The QoS profile determines the priority of
a service, which, in turn, determines the quality of that service for
the traffic passing through the firewall.
The wireless VPN firewall marks the Type of Service (ToS) field
as defined in the QoS profiles that you create. For more
information, see Preconfigured Quality of Service Profiles on
page 177.
Note: The wireless VPN firewall has preconfigured default QoS
p
rofiles; you cannot configure the QoS profiles. A QoS profile can
become active only when you apply it to a nonblocking inbound
or outbound firewall rule.

Bandwidth Profile Bandwidth limiting determines how the data is sent to and from
your host. The purpose of bandwidth limiting is to provide a
solution for limiting the outgoing and incoming traffic, thus
preventing the LAN users from consuming all the bandwidth of
the Internet link. For more information, see Create Bandwidth
Profiles on page 175. For outbound traffic, you can configure
bandwidth limiting only on the WAN interface for a LAN WAN rule.
Note: Bandwidth limiting does not apply
to the DMZ interface.
