any to apply the policy for every user.

Use Create new Object if you need to configure a new one. Select any
if the policy is effective for every source.

Access
This field controls what the NXC does with packets for this application
that match this policy. Choices are:
forward - the NXC routes the packets for this application.
Drop - the NXC does not route the packets for this application and does
not notify the client of its decision.
Reject - the NXC does not route the packets for this application and
notifies the client of its decision.
DSCP Marking
Set how the NXC handles the DSCP value of the outgoing packets that
match this policy. Inbound refers to the traffic the NXC sends to a
connection’s initiator. Outbound refers to the traffic the NXC sends out
from a connection’s initiator.
Select one of the pre-defined DSCP values to apply or select User
Defined to specify another DSCP value. The “af” choices stand for
Assured Forwarding. The number following the “af” identifies one of four
classes and one of three drop preferences.
Select preserve to have the NXC keep the packets’ original DSCP value.
Select default to have the NXC set the DSCP value of the packets to 0.
The “wmm” entries are for QoS. For more information on QoS and WMM
categories, see
Bandwidth
Management
Configure these fields to set the amount of bandwidth the application
can use. These fields only apply when Access is set to forward.
You must also enable bandwidth management in the main application
patrol screen (AppPatrol > General) in order to apply bandwidth
shaping.
