Appendix B: Policy 
The simple video policy server that existed in prior versions of USRM 2.x. has been 
enhanced in USRM 2.1.4 with a new configuration setting in which the mode is 
explicitly configured. The modes are ChannelBased, GuaranteeAll, and 
GuaranteeHighPri. 
You can enter and configure applications that will be governed by USRM Policy on 
the Resource manager under the ResourceManager.Application Policy tab. You can 
specify up to 16 separate applications for each USRM. For each application, you can 
also specify the minimum and maximum allowable bandwidth. 
 
Once the applications are configured, you can specify the policy mode on the 
ResourceManager.Configuration page. You can choose one of three Policy Modes: 
Channel Based, Guarantee All, and Guarantee Higher Priority. 
 
ChannelBased mode indicates that a QAM channel is configured for a specific 
application. Channel based should be used for siloed applications (i.e., specific 
TSIDs for VOD, specific TSIDs for SDV). If a TSID is not specified for a particular 
application, any application can use it on a first-come, first-serve basis. If Channel 
Based Mode is selected, the Minimum and Maximum Bandwidth settings on the 
Application Policy page are not necessary, and are ignored if they are set. 
TSIDs are specified for each application on the ResourceManager.QAMs.QAM 
xyz.QAM Channels page. The example below shows a GQAM whose first carrier on 
output Port 1 is VOD-only, whose fourth carrier is SDV-only and whose second and 
third carrier can be used by either application. 
 
Use GuaranteeAll or GuaranteeHighPri when QAM sharing between applications, 
such as VOD and SDV is enabled. Applications are allocated a specific percentage of 
total bandwidth. A percentage of minimum bandwidth and maximum bandwidth is 
specified for each application. These percentages apply to the total amount of 
bandwidth available to the service group. If a QAM or other edge device is 
OutOfService or otherwise unavailable, the USRM applies the percentages to the 
total amount of bandwidth available at the time of the service request.
