HP Web Quality of Service (WebQoS) is a web-based solution that provides the quality of

service needed to maintain your web applications. Using HP WebQoS, you can conﬁgure,

administer, operate, and monitor your system and control the sessions admitted to your web

server so that it does not become overloaded. You can also conﬁgure your system to work with

Cisco LocalDirector

and with HP OpenView.

What’s in This Version?

WebQoS 2.2 is available on HP-UX 11.0.

The following enhancements have been made in this WebQoS 2.2 release:

• From the management user interface, you can dynamically change and connect to another

WebQoS management server (SCO system).

• HP WebQoS is integrated with BroadVision’s One-To-One Server

. You can use

BroadVision’s session count to keep track of the aggregate session count for a service. This

allows users who have disabled cookies on their browser to reap the beneﬁts of WebQoS.

• You can protect your web server against denial of service attacks. HP WebQoS protects

against connections with no data.

• HP WebQoS supports both IP-based and name-based virtual servers. Each IP-based

virtual server must have a unique IP address and port number combination and can be

conﬁgured as an individual site in WebQoS. All name-based virtual servers must be

conﬁgured to one IP address and port number and then are conﬁgured as one site in

WebQoS.
