Best effort service type
Specifies an alternate Layer-3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for packets with the Best Effort service type (ServiceTypeBestEffort). The Packet Scheduler inserts the corresponding DSCP value in the IP header of the packets. This setting applies only to packets that do not conform to the flow specification. If you enable this setting you can change the default DSCP value associated with the Best Effort service type. If you disable this setting the system uses the default DSCP value of 0. Important: If the DSCP value for this service type is specified in the registry for a particular network adapter this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter.
Qualitative service type
Specifies an alternate Layer-3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for packets with the Qualitative service type (ServiceTypeQualitative). The Packet Scheduler inserts the corresponding DSCP value in the IP header of the packets. This setting applies only to packets that conform to the flow specification. If you enable this setting you can change the default DSCP value associated with the Qualitative service type. If you disable this setting the system uses the default DSCP value of 0. Important: If the DSCP value for this service type is specified in the registry for a particular network adapter this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter.
Network control service type
Specifies an alternate Layer-3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for packets with the Network Control service type (ServiceTypeNetworkControl). The Packet Scheduler inserts the corresponding DSCP value in the IP header of the packets. This setting applies only to packets that conform to the flow specification. If you enable this setting you can change the default DSCP value associated with the Network Control service type. If you disable this setting the system uses the default DSCP value of 48 (0x30). Important: If the DSCP value for this service type is specified in the registry for a particular network adapter this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter.
Guaranteed service type
Specifies an alternate Layer-3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for packets with the Guaranteed service type (ServiceTypeGuaranteed). The Packet Scheduler inserts the corresponding DSCP value in the IP header of the packets. This setting applies only to packets that conform to the flow specification. If you enable this setting you can change the default DSCP value associated with the Guaranteed service type. If you disable this setting the system uses the default DSCP value of 40 (0x28). Important: If the DSCP value for this service type is specified in the registry for a particular network adapter this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter.
Controlled load service type
Specifies an alternate Layer-3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for packets with the Controlled Load service type (ServiceTypeControlledLoad). The Packet Scheduler inserts the corresponding DSCP value in the IP header of the packets. This setting applies only to packets that conform to the flow specification. If you enable this setting you can change the default DSCP value associated with the Controlled Load service type. If you disable this setting the system uses the default DSCP value of 24 (0x18). Important: If the DSCP value for this service type is specified in the registry for a particular network adapter this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter.
Best effort service type
Specifies an alternate Layer-3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for packets with the Best Effort service type (ServiceTypeBestEffort). The Packet Scheduler inserts the corresponding DSCP value in the IP header of the packets. This setting applies only to packets that conform to the flow specification. If you enable this setting you can change the default DSCP value associated with the Best Effort service type. If you disable this setting the system uses the default DSCP value of 0. Important: If the DSCP value for this service type is specified in the registry for a particular network adapter this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter.
Set the interval between synchronization retries for Password Synchronization
This policy setting allows a Password Synchronization administrator to configure the interval in seconds between synchronization retries in the event that a synchronization attempt fails. If you enable this policy setting the specified retry interval in the policy setting is used by all affected computers that are running Password Synchronization. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting individual computers that are running Password Synchronization use the synchronization retry interval specified on the Configuration tab of the Password Synchronization Properties dialog box. Note: Valid values for the interval between retries are whole numbers from 1 through 600. The default value if the policy setting is enabled is 120.
Turn on the Windows to NIS password synchronization for users that have been migrated to Active Directory
This policy setting allows an administrator to turn on the Windows to Network Information Service (NIS) password synchronization for UNIX-based user accounts that have been migrated to Active Directory Domain Services. If you enable this policy setting all affected computers that are running Password Synchronization automatically update a user’s UNIX-based account password when the password is changed in the Windows environment if the user account has been migrated to Active Directory Domain Services. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting individual computers that are running Password Synchronization synchronize changes to UNIX-based user account passwords based upon how the “Windows to NIS (Active Directory) password synchronization” setting on the Configuration tab of the Password Synchronization Properties dialog box is configured.
Set the number of synchronization retries for servers running Password Synchronization
This policy setting allows an administrator to set the number of password synchronization retries that Password Synchronization can attempt in the event a synchronization attempt fails. If you enable this policy setting the number of retries specified in the policy setting applies to all affected computers in the domain that are running Password Synchronization. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting individual computers that are running Password Synchronization retry synchronization the number of times specified on the Configuration tab of the Password Synchronization Properties dialog box. Note: Valid values that can be specified for the number of retries are whole numbers 0 through 9. The default value if the policy setting is enabled is 3.
Turn on extensive logging for Password Synchronization
This policy setting allows an administrator to turn on extensive logging for Password Synchronization. If you enable this policy setting all affected computers that are running Password Synchronization log intermediate steps for password synchronization attempts. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting individual computers that are running Password Synchronization log steps of password synchronization attempts based upon how the “Enable extensive logging” setting on the Configuration tab of the Password Synchronization Properties dialog box is configured.
