Configure an IPv6 DiffServ class

The switch supports QoS ACL and DiffServ functionality for IPv6 by providing support
for IPv6 packet classification. An IPv6 ACL serves the same purpose as an IPv4 ACL.

An Ethernet IPv6 packet is distinguished from an IPv4 packet by its unique Ethertype
value, so all IPv6 classifiers include the Ethertype field, even though you cannot configure
its value for an IPv6 class on the switch.

The destination and source IPv6 addresses use a prefix length value instead of an
individual mask to qualify them as a subnet addresses or a host addresses. Packets that
match an IPv6 classifier can be marked with the IP DSCP field in the traffic class octet.

You can also assign an IPv6 ACL with a DiffServ assignment to LAG interfaces.

You can add a new DiffServ class name or rename or delete an existing class. As packets
are received, these DiffServ classes are used to prioritize packets. You can use multiple
match criteria in a class. The logic is a Boolean logical-AND for this criteria.

Add and configure an IPv6 DiffServ class

To configure an IPv6 DiffServ class:

1. Launch a web browser.

2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

The login page displays.

3. Click the Main UI Login button.

The main UI login page displays in a new tab.

4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login

button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.

The System Information page displays.

5. Select QoS > DiffServ > Advanced > IPv6 Class Configuration.

The Class Configuration page displays.

6. In the Class Name field, enter a class name.

The Class Name field also lists all existing DiffServ class names, from which you can
select one for modification or deletion. The class name can be 1 to 31 alphanumeric
characters in length.

7. From the Class Type menu, select one of the following options:

• All: All match criteria that you define for the class must be satisfied for a packet

match. All signifies the logical AND of all the match criteria.
