Inbound QoS Interfaces

The SCC 9.0 or later does not support inbound QoS interface policy pushes on SteelHead 9.0.x or SteelHead EX 3.6.x. If you are running this version of the software on your remote appliance, you must migrate your QoS policies to simplified QoS on the SCC. For detailed information about QoS migration best practices, see Managing QoS.

Only SteelHead 8.x.x and SteelHead EX 3.5.x and lower is supported for this feature. If you are running these versions of the software, you have limited QoS functionality. Riverbed recommends you upgrade to simplified QoS. For detailed information about migrating QoS, see Migrating Legacy QoS Policies.

For details about Inbound QoS environments and deployments, see the SteelHead Management Console User’s Guide for SteelHead CX or the SteelHead Deployment Guide.

Control	Description
Enable QoS on <interface> with WAN bandwidth: <kbps> kbps	Enables a WAN interface <X-Y>. Specify its bandwidth link rate in kilobits per second. The bandwidth for the default site is automatically set to this value. Inbound QoS supports in-path interfaces only; it does not support primary or auxiliary interfaces. The link rate is the bottleneck WAN bandwidth, not the interface speed out of the WAN interface into the router or switch. For example, if your appliance connects to a router with a 100-Mbps link, do not specify this value—specify the actual WAN bandwidth (for example, T1 or T3). Important: Different WAN interfaces can have different WAN bandwidths; you must enter the bandwidth link rate correctly for QoS to function properly.
