QoS planning advisor: Outbound policy type

Consider what type of outbound policy you want to create. In general, outbound policies control data flow leaving your server. A differentiated service policy is used to enhance or limit performance for traffic to a client or for specific applications. Traffic is marked to request a certain class of service throughout a network. For an example, see Scenario: Limit browser traffic.

An integrated service policy is used to reserve server resources for a specific connection. This policy will give the connection dedicated delivery and higher network priority because the reservation is requested before the data transfer. For an example, see Scenario: Dedicated delivery (IP telephony) or Scenario: Predictable B2B traffic.
