Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for dynamically implementing quality of service (QoS) for machines of a network. The method identifies a QoS policy rule that defines a QoS policy to be implemented for machines that meet a set of criteria specified by the QoS policy rule. The method dynamically identifies a set of machines that meet the set of criteria. The method configures a set of managed forwarding elements of the network to implement the QoS policy rule for network traffic associated with the set of machines. In some embodiments, the method monitors network events (e.g., user logins, addition of new machines, etc.) and identifies a corresponding QoS policy rule to be enforced at corresponding locations in the network based on the detected event.
