Per host QoS

Not applicable

Hi there.

I've played with different QoS setups. And currently I'm trying to set up a per host based QoS or BW shaping.

My QoS profile is as following:

Class 3, Min BW: 2Mb/s MaxBW:3Mb/s

Class 4, Min BW: 1Mb/s MaxBW:2Mb/s

QoS policy is:

#1 SrcZone: Inside, SrcAddress:<host_object1>, SrcUser:any, DstZone:Outside, DstAddress:any, Application:any, Service:any,Class:3

#2 SrcZone: Inside, SrcAddress:<host_object2>, SrcUser:any,  DstZone:Outside, DstAddress:any, Application:any, Service:any,Class:4

However, with this setup, only QoS policy #1 is triggered. Am I on the wrong track here?

Also if someone has any directions in how to solve a Per host traffic shaping - that would be awesome Smiley Happy

A little update:

On my initial test, I made two addresses group:

#1. address1, ip/netmask 172.16.71.10/24

#2. address2, ip/netmask 172.16.71.11/24

However, this seems to take the whole netrange (172.16.71.0 - 254) and specifying the objects without a netmask solves my issue.

one thing to consider: by default all traffic passing through the Palo Alto Networks device will be in class 4. You may want to modify your policy to use a different class so that we can differentiate between the traffic you want to shape and the rest of the traffic that does not require any special QoS shaping.

So if i leave class 4 blank, any traffic not triggering other classes of QoS will not be shaped in any way?

No shaping on class 4 traffic unless you say otherwise. In short and to answer your question, the answer is no.
