1. A system comprising:
- a user interface, wherein the user interface comprises a graphic user interface configured to allow a user to set up quality of service (QoS) provisioning for at least a plurality of voice-over Internet Protocol devices, and where the entries comprising lightweight directory access protocol and server port numbers, and wherein the graphic user interface comprisesan Internet Protocol (IP) phone subnets table including a listing of voice-supported subnets to be set to a first QoS priority,a first button selectable to add a voice-supported subnet to the IP phone subnets table,a second button selectable to remove a voice-supported subnet from the IP phone subnets table, anda third button selectable to enter a creating and editing mode for setting one or more of the plurality of devices to a QoS priority other than the first QoS priority; and

Abstract
Described herein is a policy-based Internet Protocol (IP) network wherein the Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning across various network devices is managed by policy processing via a user interface including a graphic user interface. The user interface incorporates information made available by a server, such as lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) server, having a repository, and thereby allows for a consistent set up voice-over IP devices, video devices and network data devices with minimal entries by the user. Further, the user interfaces allows for efficient policy creation and editing.
