What's New in the Solaris 9 8/03 Operating Environment

User Selector for Internet Protocol Quality of Service (IPQoS)

The Solaris IPQoS feature now includes the user selector, which supplements the existing uid selector. The user selector enables you to specify a user name or userID as criteria in a filter clause in the ipqosconf file. Previously, the uid selector only accepted a userID as a value. The following filter clause from an ipqosconf file shows the user selector:


filter {
              name myhost
              user root
}

For information about filters and selectors, refer to the IPQoS Administration Guide and the ipqosconf(1M) man page.
