<h1 class="topictitle1">Scenario details: Monitor your policy</h1>
<div><div class="section">To verify that the traffic is behaving as you configured in the policy,
use the monitor.</div>
<ol><li><span>Select the specific Policies folder (DiffServ, IntServ, Inbound
admission).</span></li>
<li><span>Right-click the policy that you want to monitor and select <span class="uicontrol">Monitor</span>.</span></li>
</ol>
<div class="example"><p>The following figure is a list of possible monitor output for
the policy set above.</p>
<div class="fignone"><span class="figcap">Figure 1. Quality of service (QoS) monitor</span><br /><img src="rzak8016.gif" alt="Quality of service (QoS) monitor" /><br /></div>
<p>Look for the fields that obtain their data from your traffic. Make
sure to check the total bits, bits in-profile, packets in-profile, and bits
out-of-profile fields. Bits out-of-profile indicate when traffic exceeds the
configured policy values. In a differentiated service policy, the out-of-profile
number indicates the number of bytes being dropped. The in-profile packets
indicate the number of bytes controlled by this policy (from the time the
packet was started to the present monitor output).</p>
<p>What values you assign
to the average token rate limit field is also important. When packets exceed
this limit, the server will begin to drop them. As a result, the bits out-of-profile
will increase. This shows you that the policy is behaving as you configured
it to behave. To change the amount of bits out-of-profile, you will need to
adjust your performance limits. Monitor QoS provides full descriptions of
all the monitor fields.</p>
