) Create a custom Path Quality profile.
Create a custom Path Quality profile for each set of business-critical and
latency-sensitive applications, application filters, application groups,
services, service objects and service group objects that has unique network
quality (health) requirements based on latency, jitter, and packet loss
percentage specific to your business needs. Applications and services can
share a Path Quality profile.
The firewall treats the latency, jitter, and packet loss thresholds as OR
conditions, meaning if any one of the thresholds is exceeded, the firewall
selects the new best (preferred) path. Any path that has latency, jitter,
and packet loss less than or equal to all three thresholds is considered
qualified and the firewall selected the path based on the associated Traffic
Distribution profile.
As an alternative to creating a Path Quality profile, you can use any of the
predefined Path Quality profiles, such as
general-business,
voip-video, file-sharing,
audio-streaming,
photo-video, and
remote-access, and more. The predefined profiles
are set up to optimize the latency, jitter, and packet loss thresholds for
the type of applications and services suggested by the name of the
profile.
