20-3

Policy

use-diffserv

Classifies traffic by the DSCP in the
packet.

[mask]

Masks the three least significant bits of
the DSCP.

If you mask the three least significant bits
of the DSCP, the switch recognizes the
remaining bits as the precedence field of
the type of service (TOS) field and
classifies the packets accordingly.

remark-diffserv

Replaces the DSCP in the packet with the
DSCP that you enter for the following
<dscp> parameter.

The switch uses the DSCP that you enter
for the <dscp> parameter to classify the
packet.

<dscp>

The specific DSCP to replace the existing
DSCP. The range is 0-63.

use-l2

Classifies traffic by the layer 2 priority of
the packet. If you enter use-l2, the
switch ignores the layer 3 default
priorities and DiffServ priorities.

deny

Blocks the packet.

fwd1 | fwd2 | fwd3 | fwd4 |
fwd5 | fwd6 | fwd7 | fwd8

The priority that you want to set.

The number following the fwd specifies
the priority. The fwdx

arguments are 1-

based, while the queue priorities are 0-
based. Consequently, the 1-based
priorities are converted to 0-based
priorities by the Queue Classification and
Queue Servicing features. For example,
to specify a priority of 0, enter fwd1.

These keywords serve the same function
as the use-priority <priority> keyword
and argument.

<protocol-id>

The ID of the protocol that you want to
assign a priority to. RFC 1700 defines the
protocol IDs.
