Configuring HP WebQoS for Netscape
Page The specified web page is served to rejected requests. You can
provide information to the customer such as why the session
was rejected and when would be a more opportune time to
return to the site. A user is less likely to try immediately
re-establishing a connection and more likely to return to the
site.
Allocate
sessions
A countdown web page is served to rejected requests. The
user is asked to wait a certain amount of time before getting
access to the site. This type of session is given priority over
new sessions.
Enter the number of sessions you wish to have admitted each
minute. For example, if you allocate five sessions per minute,
one session will be admitted every 12 seconds. If seven
sessions are rejected, five will be admitted the next minute and
two will be admitted the minute after. Make sure the allocation
rate is less than the system’s capacity.
You may want to compensate the allocation for no-shows.
Monitoring the % Priority Requests statistic will show
the system’s load due to priority sessions. Reduce the
allocation rate if the number approaches or is over 50%.
Also monitor the Last Allocation Delay statistic. It
shows how long a deferred user waited before his/her session
was admitted.
External Use an external function or application. For example, the user
could be offered a discount or other incentive to return to the
site; or, the user could be offered to enroll in a service plan that
guarantees access to the site. Currently, no supported functions
or applications exist. If selected, the Error page is returned.
