Network > Network Profiles > QoS
Add
a QoS profile to define the
bandwidth limits and priority for up to eight classes of service.
You can set both guaranteed and maximum bandwidth limits for individual
classes and for the collective classes. Priorities determine how
traffic is treated in the presence of contention.To fully enable the firewall to provide QoS, also:
- Define the traffic that you want to receive QoS treatment (select Policies > QoS to add or modify a QoS policy).
- Enable QoS on an interface (select Network > QoS).
See Quality of Service
for complete QoS
workflows, concepts, and use cases.

Profile Settings | |
---|---|
Profile Name | Enter a name to identify the profile (up
to 31 characters). The name is case-sensitive and must be
unique. Use only letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, and underscores. |
Egress Max | Enter the maximum throughput (in Mbps) for
traffic leaving the firewall through this interface. The value is
0 by default, which specifies the firewall limit (60,000 Mbps in
PAN-OS 7.1.16 and later releases; 16,000 in PAN-OS 7.1.15 and earlier
releases). The Egress Max for a QoS
profile must be less than or equal to the Egress Max for the
physical interface enabled with QoS. See Network
> QoS.Though this is not a required field, it
is recommended to always define the Egress Max for a
QoS profile. |
Egress Guaranteed | Enter the bandwidth that is guaranteed for
this profile (Mbps). When the egress guaranteed bandwidth is exceeded,
the firewall passes traffic on a best-effort basis. |
Classes | Add and specify how
to treat individual QoS classes. You can select one or more classes
to configure:
Though
this is not a required field, we recommend you always define the Egress Max value
for a QoS profile.
