2 - Description
Specifies a description for the flow group. The description can be from
1 to 15 alphanumeric characters including spaces. This parameter is
optional, but recommended. Names can help you identify the groups
on the switch.

3 - DSCP value
Specifies a replacement value to write into the DSCP (TOS) field of the
packets. The range is 0 to 63.

A new DSCP value can be set at all three levels: flow group, traffic
class, and policy. A DSCP value specified in a flow group overrides a
DSCP value specified at the traffic class or policy level.

4 - Priority
Specifies a new user priority value for the packets. The range is 0 to 7.
If you specify a new user priority value here and in Traffic Class, the
value here overrides the value in Traffic Class. If you want the packets
to retain the new value when they exit the switch, change option 5,
Remark Priority, to Yes.

5 - Remark Priority
If set to Yes, replaces the user priority value in the packets with the
new value specified in option 4, Priority. If set to No, which is the
default, the packets retain their preexisting priority level.

6 - ToS
Specifies a replacement value to write into the Type of Service (ToS)
field of IPv4 packets. The range is 0 to 7.

A new ToS value can be set at all three levels: flow group, traffic class,
and policy. A ToS value specified in a flow group overrides a ToS value
specified at the traffic class or policy level.

7 - Move ToS to Priority
If set to Yes, replaces the value in the 802.1p priority field with the
value in the ToS priority field on IPv4 packets. If set to No, which is the
default, the packets retain their preexisting 802.1p priority level.

8 - Move Priority to ToS
If set to Yes, replaces the value in the ToS priority field with the value in
the 802.1p priority field on IPv4 packets. If set to No, which is the
default, the packets retain their preexisting ToS priority level.

9 - Classifier List
Specifies the classifiers to be assigned to the policy. The specified
classifiers must already exist. Separate multiple classifier IDs with
commas (e.g., 4,11,13).

6. After configuring the parameters, type C to select Create Flow Group.
