Field Description
TemplateMode1

  • qos- when a template operates in qos mode, packets that match require some levels of bandwidth guarantee.
  • l4-switch- when a template operates in l4_switch mode, you must further define the combination fields of the packet header (IP and L4 header) to be examined.
TemplateMode2
Specifies the operating mode of Template 2. Possible values here include:
  • security- when a template operates in security mode, it acts like a source IP filter. Packets that match a rule are considered dangerous to network security and are unconditionally dropped.
  • qos- when a template operates in qos mode, packets that match require some levels of bandwidth guarantee.
  • l4-switch- when a template operates in l4_switch mode, you must further define the combination fields of the packet header (IP and L4 header) to be examined.
