Put your layer 7 rules at the very end of your list. Use them to create connection marks that they apply higher in the list.

As a result, I've set L7 tagging and QoS rules to keep Netflix from going nuts while preventing buffering on my edge router. My config essentially guaranteed 3Mbps for streaming video, but limited it to a max of 3Mbps. Problem I run into is I need a hotter router. Depending on the interpretation, my QoS rule that improves streaming video could be construed as "throttling". ----- Original Message ----- From: Patrick Leary To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2015 11:34 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Light Reading Not so sure about that Jon. Pushing it down to merely SD is not blocking or otherwise rendering the traffic "unusable." SD is perfectly usable, though consumer might not find it desirable. I think a wireless provider can make an effective case for forcing streaming to SD under the "management" clauses of this order, because it is an action taken to preserve the ability of all subscribers to have useable connections.

It prohibits the degrading of Internet traffic based on source, destination, or content." Seems pretty clear. I have a competitor that was using a Procera device to degrade Youtube by throttling streams back to SD (though it seems like they stopped sometime since I last checked the Youtube VQR). Seems like that wouldn't be considered reasonable network management under this. On Thu, Mar 12, 2015 at 11:21 AM, Bill Prince < [email protected] > wrote: Not sure why. If you talk to the man on the street, they're going to interpret this as "everyone should get 1 Gbps to every device in the nation", and that the cost should be $9.99 per month. That's not the reality. So in reality, ISPs will continue to do bandwidth management to accommodate what is actually possible on a case-by-case basis. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 3/12/2015 9:12 AM, Chuck McCown wrote: <blockquote> Procera is gonna hate this I think.
