The Application Mapping option lets you configure the applications identified by NetFlow Analyzer. You can add new applications, modify existing ones, or delete them from OpManager. Please see the Additional Notes on Application Mapping section to understand this feature more clearly. Also it is possible to associate an IP address with an application.
Follow the steps below to add a new application:
![]() |
Ensure that the combination of port number and protocol is unique. If not, the older application mapping will be deleted. |
Once you are done, click the Update button to save your changes.
Select an application and click the Modify button to modify its properties
![]() |
You can only change the name of the application. If you need to change the port or the protocol, you have to delete the application, and add it as a new application. |
Once you are done, click the Update button to save your changes.
Select an application and click the Delete button to delete it. The application is permanently deleted, the corresponding port is freed, and can be assigned to another application
The check is done first with the smaller of the 2 ports (source port / destination port), and if no match is found the bigger of the 2 ports is mapped
Application mappings created with specific IP address / IP Range / IP Network is given higher priority over applications mappings with no IP address. For example assume you have 2 application mappings as below:
Port | Protocol | IP Address / IP Range | Application |
80 | TCP | 10.10.1.0( 255.255.255.0) | APP1 |
80 | TCP | Any | APP2 |
If a flow is received with source address 10.10.10.10 and Port as TCP-80 then it is classified as APP1. Only TCP-80 flows from non-10.10.10.0 network will be classified as APP2.
Application mappings created with single port is given higher priority over applications mappings with port range. For example assume you have application mappings as below:Port | Protocol | IP Address / IP Range | Application |
80 | TCP | any | APP1 |
70 - to - 90 | TCP | any | APP2 |
Application Groups allow you to define your own class of applications by including one or more applications. For example, you might want to classify all your database applications like Oracle, MySql, MS-Sql in to one group called the DataBase group. Initially when no application groups have been created a message to that effect is displayed. The Application Group report can be viewed on the Application tab for each interface.
Follow the steps below to add a new application group:
You may create additional Application Groups by clicking on the Add button and following the above steps.
Select the Application Group you wish to modify and click on the "Modify" button.
![]() |
You can only change the Application Group description and the list of selected applications. It is not possible to change the application group name. |
Once you are done, click the Save button to save your changes.
Select the application group you want to delete and click on the "Delete" button. You are asked for a confirmation to delete and if you confirm the group is deleted.
The DiffServ model for DSCP Mapping was developed to differentiate IP traffic so that the traffic's relative priority could be determined on a per-hop basis. Using DSCP Mapping you can name the DiffServ code points and monitor their traffic in troubleshooting reports under the DSCP tab. Note that the DSCP reports can be viewed on the Troubleshooting page by clicking on the DSCP tab.
From OpManager, go to Admin-> Application/QoS Mapping-> DSCP Mapping. Click on the Add button to create a new DSCP Mapping. A window pops out where you may enter the Group Name and the Code Point ( a six-digit Binary Number). For Example: Data Centre devices - 001001. Click on the "Add" button to add this mapping.

Please note that it is not possible to
modify a DSCP Mapping.

Select the DSCP
Mapping ( the combination of QoS Group Name
and Code Points) you want to delete and click on the Delete button.
Quality of Service is used to measure, improve and guarantee transmission rates, error rates and other characteristics in a networkes setting. The DiffServ model for DSCP Mapping was developed to differentiate IP traffic so that the traffic's relative priority could be determined on a per-hop basis. Using DSCP Mapping you can name the DiffServ code points and monitor their traffic in troubleshooting reports under the DSCP tab. Note that the DSCP reports can be viewed on the Troubleshooting page by clicking on the DSCP tab.The DCSP group is very valuable in the deployment of QoS.

You may create additional DSCP Group by clicking on the Add button and following the above steps.
Select the DSCP Group you wish to modify and click on the "Modify" button.
![]() |
You can only change the Group description and the list of selected applications. It is not possible to change the DSCP group name. |
Once you are
