Tuning Classifier Parameters

The changes to the tuning configuration take effect after a device reset.

The BWM module uses the classifier objects (for example, networks, subnets, discrete IP address, and so on) for all the bandwidth-management policies on the device.

Example

Assume the following configuration:

—	Network table size = 2

—	Subnets per network = 4

—	Discretes per network = 4

—	Object “LAN1” with index 1: 192.168.10.0/24

—	Object “LAN1” with index 2: 10.0.0.0/8

—	Object “LAN1” with index 3: 292.167.10.0/24

—	Object “LAN1” with index 4: 20.0.0.0/8

—	Object “LAN1” with index 5: 2.2.2.1/32

—	Object “LAN1” with index 6: 3.2.2.1/32

—	Object “LAN1” with index 7: 6.2.2.1/32

—	Object “LAN1” with index 8: 7.2.2.1/32

—	Object “LAN2” with index 0: 20.2.3.1/32

You cannot create an object “LAN3”, because the network table size has been exceeded.

You cannot create an object “LAN1” with index 9: 9.1.1.1/32, because the discrete-per-network size has been exceeded. That is, four entries with mask 32 already exists.

You cannot create an object “LAN1” with index 9: 40.0.0.0/8, because the subnets-per-network size has been exceeded. That is, four entries containing a range already exists, regardless whether they were defined using a range flag or mask flag.

You can create objects “LAN2” with index 9 40.0.0.0/8 and “LAN2” with index 9 9.1.1.1/32.

To configure the Classifier tuning parameters

1.	Select Services > Tuning > Classifier. The Classifier Tuning pane is displayed.

2.	In the relevant After Reset fields, configure the parameters; and then, click Set.

 

Table 27: Classifier Tuning Parameters

Parameter	Description
Network Table	The number of network entries defined by name and index. For example, for a network with two indexes, two entries are consumed. Values: 32 – 10,000 Default: 1024
Discrete IP Addresses Per Network	The number of discrete IP addresses in the network (with a /32 subnet mask). Values: 1 – 50,000 Default: 1024
Subnets Per Network	The number of non-discrete IP subnets (with a range or mask smaller than a /32). Values: 16 – 256 Default: 64
Dynamic Network Table	The number of dynamic network entries defined by name and index. For example, for a network with two indexes, two entries are consumed. Values: 16 – 256 Default: 64
Discrete IP Addresses Per Dynamic Network	The number of discrete IP addresses in a dynamic network (with a /32 subnet mask). Values: 1 – 50,000 Default: 1024
Subnets Per Dynamic Network	The number of non-discrete IP subnets (with a range or mask smaller than a /32) per dynamic network. Values: 1 – 50,000 Default: 64
MAC groups Table	The number of MAC groups entries in the table. Values: 16-2048 Default: 128
Filter Table	Thee number of basic filter entries in the table. Values: 64 – 2048 Default: 512
AND Group Table	The number of AND Group entries in the table. Values: 32 – 2048 Default: 256
OR Group Table	The number of OR Group entries in the table. Values: 32 – 2048 Default: 256
Application port groups	The number of application port group entries in the table. Values: 1 – 1000 Default: 20
Content Table	The number of content entries in the table. Values: 8 – 4096 Default: 512
