b.
Row 2a shows an egress ACK for the class. Since class credit is less than the rate this 
packet is queued in the appropriate ingress queue. And it will not be processed until 
class credit is at least equal to the rate.
c.
In the following time slices, class credit gets accumulated until it matches the rate. 
Hence, after two time slices class credit becomes 1900 (620 + 640 + 640). The queued 
ACK packet is process from the ingress pool at this point.
In row 2a, an ACK packet is received that needs to be sent to the TCP source on the WAN zone. 
Sending this ACK immediately would have caused the TCP source to send more packets 
immediately. By queuing the ACK and sending it only after the class credit reaches the average 
rate, we have reduced the TCP’s sending rate; i.e. by doing this we have slowed down the 
ingress rate.
Glossary
  •
802.1p – IEEE 802.1p is a Layer 2 (MAC layer) Class of Service mechanism that tags 
packets by using 3 priority bits (for a total of 8 priority levels) within the additional 16-bits 
of an 802.1q header. 802.1p processing requires compatible equipment for tag generation, 
recognition and processing, and should only be employed on compatible networks. 802.1p 
is supported on SonicWALL NSA platforms.
  •
Bandwidth Management (BWM) – Refers to any of a variety of algorithms or methods 
used to shape traffic or police traffic. Shaping often refers to the management of outbound 
traffic, while policing often refers to the management of inbound traffic (also known as 
admission control). There are many different methods of bandwidth management, including 
various queuing and discarding techniques, each with their own design strengths. 
SonicWALL employs a Token Based Class Based Queuing method for inbound and 
outbound BWM, as well as a discard mechanism for certain types of inbound traffic. 
  •
Class of Service (CoS) – A designator or identifier, such as a layer 2 or layer 3 tag, that 
is applied to traffic after classification. CoS information will be used by the Quality of 
Service (QoS) system to differentiate between the classes of traffic on the network, and to 
provide special handling (e.g. prioritized queuing, low latency, etc.) as defined by the QoS 
system administrator.
  •
Classification – The act of identifying (or differentiating) certain types (or classes) of 
traffic. Within the context of QoS, this is performed for the sake of providing customized 
handling, typically prioritization or de-prioritization, based on the traffic’s sensitivity to 
delay, latency, or packet loss. Classification within SonicOS Enhanced uses Access Rules, 
and can occur based on any or all of the following elements: source zone, destination zone, 
source address object, destination address object, service object, schedule object.
  •
Code Point – A value that is marked (or tagged) into the DSCP portion of an IP packet by 
a host or by an intermediate network device. There are currently 64 Code Points available, 
from 0 to 63, used to define the ascending prioritized class of the tagged traffic.
  •
Conditioning – A broad term used to describe a plurality of methods of providing Quality 
of Service to network traffic, including but not limited to discarding, queuing, policing, and 
shaping. 
  •
DiffServ – Differentiated Services. A standard for differentiating between different types or 
classes of traffic on an IP network for the purpose of providing tailored handling to the traffic 
based on its requirements. DiffServ primarily depends upon Code Point values marked in 
the ToS header of an IP packet to differentiate between different classes of traffic. DiffServ 
service levels are executed on a Per Hop Basis at each router (or other DiffServ enabled 
network device) through which the marked traffic passes. DiffServ Service levels currently
