Enterprise Service Wizard
QPM 4.1.2 simplifies the process of deploying QoS policies for Enterprise video applications on your network. QPM provides Enterprise video templates that enable you to automatically create QoS policies for a pre-defined set of Enterprise video services.
Using these templates, you can create QoS policies at the following end-points or places in the network (PINs):
•Campus
•Branch
QPM creates QoS policies based on the roles in the network places and the interfaces that are attached to these roles. QPM currently supports the following roles:
•Campus-Access-Edge
•Campus-Interswitch-Links
•Campus-WAN-Edge
•Branch-WAN-Edge
•Branch-Access-Edge
•Branch-Interswitch-Links
Note QPM currently supports Enterprise video templates for Cisco TelePresence applications only.
The following tables list the devices that are supported at each role in the network and the ingress and egress queue structures (if any) for each device:
•Devices Supported at the Campus-Access-Edge Role
•Devices Supported at the Campus-Interswitch-Links Role
•Devices Supported at the Campus-WAN-Edge Role
•Devices Supported at the Branch-WAN-Edge Role
•Devices Supported at the Branch-Access-Edge Role
•Devices Supported at the Branch-Interswitch-Links Role

Using the Enterprise Service Wizard
The Enterprise Service wizard helps you to configure and deploy TelePresence-based QoS policies for the Enterprise video applications. In addition to creating new services, the wizard also helps you to update and delete existing Enterprise video services.
The wizard guides you to configure and deploy TelePresence based QoS policies at different PINs. The wizard displays only those interfaces on which the QoS policies can be configured.
Step-by-step procedure for configuring QoS using the Enterprise Service wizard is described in the following sections:
•Assigning Devices to PINs
•Selecting a Service Type
•Selecting Roles and Interfaces in a Campus
•Selecting Roles and Interfaces in a Branch
•Deploying QoS Policy
•Updating Enterprise Video Services
•Deleting Enterprise Video Services
Before you Begin
To run the wizard, the following pre-requisites must be met:
•All relevant devices in your network must be added or imported to the device inventory of QPM.
•The network interfaces attached to the devices must be assigned to the relevant PINs. These interfaces will appear in the Enterprise Service wizard only if the devices (to which the interfaces are attached) are assigned to the relevant PINs (see Assigning Devices to PINs).
Assigning Devices to PINs
PIN assignment enables QPM to display only those device interfaces that are associated with a particular network place and role, while creating Enterprise video services.
To open this page, choose Administration > PIN Assignment.
To assign devices to PINs:
Step 1 In the Device Selector, check the checkbox next to the device that you want to select.
Step 2 Click Save.
In the PIN Assignment page, the object selector displays the devices and the icons that represent the PINs to which the devices are assigned. Currently, the pre-shipped metadata defines only two PINs:
•Branch—Represented by "B"
•Campus—Represented by "C"
Note The devices that appear without a PIN character next to their display names are not associated with any PIN.
To unassign the devices that you have already assigned to a PIN.
Step 1 In the Device Selector, uncheck the checkbox next to the device that you want to unassign.
Step 2 Click Save.
Selecting a Service Type
The first page of the Enterprise Service wizard is the Introduction page. It includes a Welcome note and an overview of the tasks that you can perform using the wizard.
In the Introduction page, you can specify the name and the type of the Enterprise video service that you want to create in the current Enterprise Service wizard session.
To select the type of the Enterprise video service:
Step 1 Do any of the following:
•Choose Provisioning > Policy Management > Policy View > Enterprise Policy.
•Choose Provisioning > Enterprise Policy.
•Click Enterprise Policy in the Provisioning portlet.
The Services Table page appears.
Step 2 Click Create Service.
The Enterprise Service wizard - Introduction page appears.
Step 3 Enter a service name in the Service Name field.
Step 4 From the Select Service Type drop-down list, choose a service type.
You can select only TelePresence based services in the Enterprise Service wizard because QPM currently supports only TelePresence based QoS policies for Enterprise video service.
Step 5 Click Next to move to the next step in the wizard.
Selecting Roles and Interfaces in a Campus
In this step of the wizard, you choose the Campus interfaces for which you want to create the QoS policy. You can choose the interfaces that belong to any of the following three roles:
•Campus Access Edge
•Campus WAN Edge
•Campus Interswitch Links
The wizard will configure only the network interfaces that you have chosen. The interfaces that do not support Enterprise video traffic, are not displayed.
Note If you open the Enterprise Service wizard before assigning devices to the relevant PINs, no interfaces will be displayed in the Role Selection tables. In this case, you must first assign the devices to the relevant PINs.
To choose the interfaces in the Campus Access Edge role:
Step 1 Open the Campus Access Edge area, by clicking the arrow next to its heading.
Step 2 In the Role Selection table, check the check box of the Campus interface for which you want to create the QoS policy.
Step 3 Click Next to move to the next step in the wizard.

Step 1 Open the Campus InterSwitch Links area by clicking the arrow next to its heading.
Step 2 In the Role Selection table, check the check box of the Campus interface for which you want to create the QoS policy.
Step 3 Click Next to move to the next step in the wizard.
Selecting Roles and Interfaces in a Branch
In this step of the wizard, you choose the Branch interfaces for which you want to create the QoS policy. You can choose the interfaces that belong to any of the following three roles:
•Branch Interswitch Links
•Branch WAN Edge
•Branch Access Edge
The wizard will configure only the network interfaces that you have chosen. The interfaces that do not support Enterprise video traffic, are not displayed.
If you open the Enterprise Service wizard before assigning devices to the relevant PINs, no interface will be displayed in the Role Selection tables. In this case, you must first assign the devices to the relevant PINs.
To choose the interfaces in the Branch Interswitch Links role:
Step 1 Open the Branch Interswitch Links area, by clicking the arrow next to its heading.
Step 2 In the Role Selection table, check the check box of the Branch interface for which you want to create the QoS policy.
Step 3 Click Next to move to the next step in the wizard.
To choose the interfaces in the Branch WAN Edge role:
Step 1 Open the Branch WAN Edge area, by clicking the arrow next to its heading.
Step 2 In the Role Selection table, check the check box of the Branch interface for which you want to create the QoS policy.
Step 3 Click Next to move to the next step in the wizard.
To choose interfaces in the Branch Access Edge role:
Step 1 Open the Branch Access Edge area, by clicking the arrow next to its heading.
Step 2 In the Role Selection table, check the check box of the Branch interface for which you want to create the QoS policy.
Step 3 Click Next.
The Summary page appears.
Deploying QoS Policy
The End page of the Enterprise Service wizard informs you that all QoS configuration settings have been completed and that the wizard has added and saved the policies in the current deployment group.
In this step of the wizard, you can directly deploy the policies to the relevant devices. You can also create historical monitoring jobs to monitor the interfaces participating in the current service instance.
Note The Enterprise Service wizard will not allow you to choose any of the options available in the End page, if you have not chosen any Branch or Campus interface. Click Back to select interfaces.
To create a historical monitoring task for the selected interface:
Step 1 Check the Do you want to Monitor the Selected Interfaces check box.
Step 2 Select the Polling Interval (in minutes) for the historical monitoring job.
Step 3 Select the Start Time and End Time buttons of the historical monitoring job.
Step 4 Select the frequency of the historical monitoring job.
To deploy the QoS policy:
Step 1 Click the Yes radio button to deploy the QoS policies on the selected interfaces.
Step 2 Click Finish to close the wizard.

|
