Abstract

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method is disclosed, in which a determination is made for each of a plurality of network interfaces of whether an amount of traffic on the network interface exceeds a predefined traffic threshold. Each of the network interfaces whose amount of traffic is below the traffic threshold is excluded from Quality of Service (QoS) polling. For each of the non-excluded network interfaces whose traffic exceeds the traffic threshold, a determination is made of a set of traffic classes transported on the network interface, and any of the traffic classes with a priority level below a cutoff threshold are excluded from QoS polling. For each non-excluded traffic class that has a priority level above the cutoff threshold, a determination is made of a per-class QoS polling rate based on the respective priority level of the traffic class.
