Searching for QoS Policy Data in the Directory

You can run queries of the directory data to find:

• QoS profiles configured on a JUNOSe router
• QoS profiles in a policy group
• Policy groups that contain a particular QoS profile
• JUNOSe routers that have a QoS profile configured
• Policy groups supported on a router. For a policy group to be supported on a router, both the policy group and the router must contain the same QoS profile.
• Routers that can be supported by a policy group. Provides a list of routers that contain QoS profile(s) that are also in the specified policy group.

You can run these queries by using either Policy Editor or Policy Web Admin.

Using Policy Editor to Search for QoS Policy Information

Before using Policy Editor to run a query, you need to:

• Connect Policy Editor to a directory server. See Starting Policy Editor in SDX Objects Guide, Chapter 4, Using Policy Editor.
• Update the directory with a list of QoS profiles that are on the router(s) that you want to search. See Updating QoS Profile Data in the Directory.

Running Queries from Policy Editor

To run queries with Policy Editor:

1. In the Policy Editor window, click Tools in the menu bar; then click Query.

The Router Query window appears.

2. Fill in the fields (see Table 40), and click Query.

To erase query results from the screen, click Clear.

 Table 40:  Router query parameters  

 Parameter
 Description

 Condition Type

 Object to be searched—router, QoS profile, or policy group 


 Condition Value

 Name of the QoS profile, router, or policy group on which you want to search


 Find

 Object that you want to find—router, QoS profile, or policy group. The software searches for this object on the QoS profile, router, or policy group defined above.


 Supported

 If checked, searches for the condition type that is on the router, QoS profile, or policy group. 
 If not checked, searches for the condition type that is not on the router, QoS profile, or policy group.



 

Examples

The query example in Figure 35 searches for all QoS profiles on router chimera.

The query in Figure 36 searches for QoS profiles in policy group DHCP.

Figure 36: Searching for QoS profiles in a policy group

The query in Figure 37 searches for all policy groups that router bigfoot supports. For a policy group to be supported on a router, both the policy group and the router must contain the same QoS profile.

Using Policy Web Admin to Search for QoS Policy Information

Before you use Policy Web Admin, you must deploy the WAR file for the Policy Web Admin in the Web application server. You can find this file, pomAdmin.war, in the folder webapp on the SDX-300 software CD. Refer to the documentation for the Web application server for information about deploying applications.

To deploy Policy Web Admin inside JBoss, copy the file to the JBoss server/default/deploy directory.

cp /cdrom/cdrom0/webapp/pomAdmin.war 
/opt/UMC/jboss/server/default/deploy

JBoss automatically starts the application when a WAR file is copied into the deploy directory.

Launching Policy Web Admin

To launch Policy Web Admin:

1. Start your Web browser.
2. Enter the location of Policy Web Admin in the following format:

https://<web-server-name or ip-address>:<port>/pomAdmin

The Policy Web Admin window appears.

Connecting to a Directory

Before you run queries, you need to connect to the directory where SDX policies are stored. To connect to the directory:

1. From the Policy Web Admin main window, click Dir Connection.

The Directory Connection window appears.

2. Enter the connection information for the directory that contains the SDX policies, and click Connect.

The Tools window appears.

Querying the Directory for QoS Information

To search the directory for QoS information:

1. In the Tools window, click Query.

The Query window appears.

2. Fill in the parameters, and click Query.

The results appear in the Response field.

For examples of queries, see Examples.
