• If you bind a policy map to more than one port and one of its classes

contains a single policer, all policy map rules will be multiplied per port

(using up more TCAM resources).

• An aggregate policer applies the QoS to all of its flows in aggregation,

regardless of policies and ports.

Advanced QoS settings consist of the following elements:

• Rules — All frames matching a single group of rules are considered to be a

flow.

• Actions — To be applied to frames in each flow that match the rules.

Policers — See "Single Policers" on page 399

• Binding — Combination of rules and actions that are bound to one or

more interfaces.

Workflow to Configure Advanced QoS Mode

To configure Advanced QoS mode, perform the following:

1 Select Advanced mode for the system in the QoS Mode page

.

2 If external DSCP values are different from those used on incoming

packets, map the external values to internal values in the DSCP Rewrite

page.

3 Create ACLs, as described in "ACLs" on page 206.
4 When ACLs are defined, create class maps and associate the ACLs with

them in the Class Mapping pages

.

5 Create a policy map in the Policy Class Maps pages, and associate the

policy map with one or more class maps. Specify the QoS action, if needed,

for example by assigning a policer to a class map, when you associate the

class map to the policy.
