Before changing the Huawei network configuration, an engineer investigates: A transit switch rewrites EF-marked packets to best effort and conferencing quality degrades only under congestion. Which diagnostic check should be performed first?
Review ingress marks, traffic policy counters, queue occupancy and congestion test results. This check isolates the suspected cause before an unsafe change. If confirmed, the targeted action is: Enforce the authorized DSCP trust boundary and remark or queue approved traffic appropriately. Successful verification is: Traffic captures show intended markings and low-delay queue behavior during representative congestion.
Inspect ip-prefix sequence, mask-length qualifiers and test candidate routes. This check would diagnose Prefix-list network and mask matching, but would not first isolate the described QoS DSCP remarking and trust. Begin with: Review ingress marks, traffic policy counters, queue occupancy and congestion test results.
Inspect AP address, controller discovery, CAPWAP control status and AC join logs. This check would diagnose WLAN AC and Fit AP CAPWAP, but would not first isolate the described QoS DSCP remarking and trust. Begin with: Review ingress marks, traffic policy counters, queue occupancy and congestion test results.
Inspect root bridge ID, path cost, port roles and current bridge priorities. This check would diagnose RSTP root bridge location, but would not first isolate the described QoS DSCP remarking and trust. Begin with: Review ingress marks, traffic policy counters, queue occupancy and congestion test results.
A Huawei Datacom engineer is investigating the following situation: An inbound ACL permits a broad office subnet before a later deny for one restricted server, so the server stays reachable. Which corrective action best resolves the specified issue?
Use an ordered narrow ACL with the correct interface and traffic direction for the required filter. Technical basis: Packet filtering depends on first relevant ACL matches and the direction of filter application. The measurable acceptance criterion is: The restricted destination is denied and authorized comparison traffic succeeds in a controlled test.
Evaluate eligible candidate paths and select the shorter AS_PATH when earlier BGP preference criteria do not decide. This is a legitimate response to the different issue of BGP AS_PATH length egress choice, but it does not correct the specific ACL packet filter rule order and direction condition reported. The relevant technical distinction is: Packet filtering depends on first relevant ACL matches and the direction of filter application.
