Configure actions in the traffic

See the subsequent chapters, depending on the purpose of the traffic
behavior: traffic policing, traffic filtering, traffic redirecting, priority
marking, traffic accounting, and so on.
Defining a policy
You associate a behavior with a class in a QoS policy to perform the actions defined in the behavior for
the class of packets.
To associate a class with a behavior in a policy:

3.
Associate a class with a
behavior in the policy.
classifier tcl-name behavior
behavior-name
Repeat this step to create more
class-behavior associations.
IMPORTANT:
When an ACL is referenced by a QoS policy for traffic classification, the deny action in an ACL rule means
not to execute the behavior of the corresponding class-behavior association, and the permit action in an
ACL rule means to execute the behavior of the corresponding class-behavior association.
Applying the QoS policy
You can apply a QoS policy to the following destinations:
•
An interface—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent or received on the interface.
•
A VLAN—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent or received on all ports in the VLAN.
•
Globally—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent or received on all ports.
•
Control plane—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent on the control plane.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
•
You can apply a QoS policy to the control plane of only an Ethernet interface card.
•
You can modify classes, behaviors, and class-behavior associations in a QoS policy even after it is
applied. If a class references an ACL for traffic classification, you can delete or modify the ACL
(such as add rules to, delete rules from, and modify rules of the ACL).
•
Global QoS policies, interface QoS policies, and VLAN QoS policies are in the descending order
of priority when being used to match packets.
•
Global QoS policies and VLAN QoS policies will be applied to all interface cards. If the hardware
resources of an interface card are insufficient, applying a global or VLAN-based QoS policy will
fail on the interface card. In this case, the system does not automatically roll back the QoS policy
