Policy Classification Configuration

This chapter describes the Policy Classification set of commands and how to use them.

Policy Classification Configuration Summary

D‐Series devices support policy profile‐based provisioning of network resources by allowing IT 
administrators to:

Create, change or remove policy profiles based on business‐specific use of network services.

Permit or deny access to specific services by creating and assigning classification rules which 
map user profiles to protocol‐based frame filtering policies configured for a particular VLAN 
or Class of Service (CoS).

Assign or unassign ports to policy profiles so that only ports activated for a profile will be 
allowed to transmit frames accordingly.

Configuring Policy Profiles

Purpose

To review, create, change and remove user profiles that relate to business‐driven policies for 
managing network resources.

Note: A license is required to enable Policy on the SecureStack B2 and B3 and the D-Series switch.
