Chapter 10 Network QoS for vNICs 205
Disabling QoS on a vNIC
XgOS allows you to disable QoS for either ingress or egress traffic on a per vNIC
basis. You can disable network QoS in different ways:
■ Naming the Policer. If you disable QoS by naming a specific Policer, QoS is no
longer active but the Policer remains attached to the vNIC. As a result, you can
re-enable the Policer on the vNIC without having to bind the Policer to the vNIC
again.
■ Using the keyword none. If you disable QoS by setting the Policer to none, the
Policer is no longer active, and it is removed from the vNIC. As a result, if you
want to re-enable the Policer you will need to specify a QoS Policer for the vNIC
as well as enable it. You cannot simply change the state to “enable” because there
is no Policer to re-enable on the vNIC.
Note – Default network QoS Policers can be disabled as well as custom QoS
Policers.
