Description

This command creates a classifier. A classifier defines a traffic flow. A
traffic flow consists of packets that share one or more characteristics. A
traffic flow can range from being very broad to very specific. An example
of the former might be all IP traffic while an example of the latter could be
packets with specific source and destination MAC addresses.

You use classifiers with access control lists (ACL) and Quality of Service
policies to define the traffic flow to be affected by the ACL or QoS.

If you create a classifier without any parameters, then all incoming packets
are classified.

The ANY option of a parameter is used when you want to delete the
current setting of a parameter without setting a new value. This leaves the
parameter blank so that it applies to all packets.

Note

For definitions and restrictions on the classifier variables, refer to the
Chapter 13, “Classifiers” in the AT-S63 Management Software
Menus Interface User’s Guide.

Examples

This command creates a classifier for all IP traffic:

create classifier=4 description=”IP flow” protocol=ip

This command creates a classifier for all traffic originating from the subnet
149.22.22.0 destined to the device with the IP address 149.44.44.11:
