Defining a traffic behavior

A traffic behavior is a set of QoS actions (such as traffic filtering, shaping, policing, and priority marking)

to take on a class of traffic. To define a traffic behavior, first create it and then configure QoS actions,

such as priority marking and traffic redirecting, in traffic behavior view.
Follow these steps to define a traffic behavior:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Create a traffic behavior and enter
traffic behavior view

traffic behavior behavior-name Required

Configure actions in the traffic
behavior

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.
You cannot name a user-defined QoS policy the same as the system-defined QoS policy.
Follow these steps to associate a class with a behavior in a policy:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Create a policy and enter policy view

qos policy policy-name Required

Associate a class with a behavior in the
policy

NOTE:

If an ACL is referenced by a QoS policy for defining traffic match criteria, packets matching the ACL are
organized as a class and the behavior defined in the QoS policy applies to the class regardless of
whether the match mode of the if-match clause is deny or permit.

In a QoS policy with multiple class-to-traffic-behavior associations, if the action of creating an outer
VLAN tag is configured in a traffic behavior, do not configure any other action in this traffic behavior;

otherwise, the QoS policy may not function as expected after it is applied.

Applying the QoS policy

You can apply a QoS policy to the following occasions:

An interface—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent or received on the interface.

A user profile—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent or received by the online users of the user
profile.

A VLAN—The policy takes effect on the traffic sent or received on all ports in the VLAN.
