Configuring Egress encode policy maps
Egress Encode Policy Maps are created globally and are applied later either globally for all ports on
a device or locally to specific port. To create an Egress Encode Policy Map, you must first enter the
QoS mapping configuration level of the command interface using the qos-mapping command, as
shown in the following.
Brocade(config)# qos-mapping
Configuration of each of the Egress Encode Policy Maps is described in the following sections:
•
Configuring Egress Encode DSCP Policy Maps
•
Configuring Egress Encode PCP Policy Maps
•
Configuring Egress Encode EXP Policy Maps
Configuring Egress encode DSCP policy maps
The following procedures are used when configuring an Egress Encode DSCP Policy Map:
•
Naming an Egress Encode DSCP Policy Map
•
Configuring an Egress Encode DSCP Policy Map
Naming an Egress encode DSCP policy map
Once you are in the QoS configuration level, can define the name of an Egress Encode DSCP Policy
Map using the dscp encode-map command, as shown in the following.
Brocade(config)# qos-mapping
Brocade(config-qos-mapping)# dscp encode-map Customer1
Syntax: [no] dscp encode-map map-name
The no option is used to delete a currently configured Egress Encode DSCP Policy Map. If the policy
map is currently in use, the no command will be rejected and an error message will be displayed.
The map-name variable specifies the name of the Egress Encode DSCP Policy Map that you are
defining. It can be up to 64 characters in length. You can specify the same policy map name for
different types of maps. For example, you can use the same policy pam name for an Egress Encode
DSCP Policy Map and an Egress Encode EXP Policy map.
NOTE
The name “default-map” cannot be used because it is reserved for standard mappings as described
in
Configuring an Egress encode DSCP policy map
Once you have named an Egress Encode DSCP Policy Map using the dscp encode-map command,
you can set the values of the named encode policy map. Setting the values in an Egress Encode
DSCP Policy Map involves specifying a DSCP value to be marked in outgoing packets for a specified
priority value (0 - 7) and optionally a drop precedence value (0 - 3).
