Hello Sib,

You may follow the QOS guide to get a complete overview: QoS in PAN-OS 4.1

If you want to give guarnteed bandwidth for certain IP's, you may configure a QOS policy and assigned that traffic to a specific class.

Thanks

Hi Hulk

The below is from the page  8 , If i  am applying the qos profile on the ingress interface only  ,what is the point  in  setting  egress  max bandwidth .

( May be a dumb question )

2) Configure QoS profile and class

a. Give a name to the profile, set a egress max and egress guaranteed bandwidth for the profile.

b. You could configure at most 8 classes in a QoS profile. Create a class where your traffic is classified in QoS policy.

c. Specify priority, egress maximum and egress guaranteed bandwidth for the traffic class that you have classified in the QoS policy.

d. The sum of the egress max bandwidths of the classes in the profile should be less or equal to the profile’s egress max bandwidth. On the same note, the sum of the egress guaranteed bandwidth of the classes in the profile should be less or equal to the profile’s egress guaranteed bandwidth.
