Creation of QoS filters

At the start of the QoS configuration, filters are defined that will identify traffic that needs to be prioritised. QoS filters must be created for the prioritisation of VPN IPSec connections. For this, go to the following menu:

  1. Go to Routing -> QoS -> QoS Filter -> New.

Routing -> QoS -> QoS Filter ->New

Proceed as follows in order to configure QoS filters:

  1. For Description enter the description of the filter, e.g. IKE .

  2. Select the Protocol udp .

  3. For Destination Port/Range select Specify port and enter the destination port number, e.g. 500 .

  4. Under Source Port/Range select Specify port and enter the source port number, e.g. 500 .

  5. Leave you DSCP/TOS filter (Leyer 3) to Ignore .

  6. Press OK to confirm your entries.

Following that, create additional QoS filters for the ESP and NAT Traversal protocols by using the following tables.

Description Protocol Destination port/range Source port/range
IKE udp 500 500
ESP esp - -
NAT-T_1 udp 4500 -
NAT-T_2 udp - 4500

The complete configuration looks like this:
