Creating QoS Policies

– 245 –

Conform – Specifies that traffic conforming to the maximum

rate (CIR) will be transmitted without any change to the DSCP

service level.

Transmit – Transmits in-conformance traffic without any

change to the DSCP service level.

Exceed – Specifies whether traffic that exceeds the maximum

rate (CIR) but is within the excess burst size (BE) will be

dropped or the DSCP service level will be reduced.

Set IP DSCP – Decreases DSCP priority for out of

conformance traffic. (Range: 0-63)

Drop – Drops out of conformance traffic.

Violate – Specifies whether the traffic that exceeds the excess

burst size (BE) will be dropped or the DSCP service level will be

reduced.

Set IP DSCP – Decreases DSCP priority for out of

conformance traffic. (Range: 0-63)

Drop – Drops out of conformance traffic.

trTCM (Police Meter) – Defines the committed information rate

(CIR, or maximum throughput), peak information rate (PIR), and

their associated burst sizes – committed burst size (BC, or burst

rate) and peak burst size (BP), and the action to take for traffic

conforming to the maximum throughput, exceeding the maximum

throughput but within the peak information rate, or exceeding the

peak information rate. In addition to the actions defined by this

command to transmit, remark the DSCP service value, or drop a

packet, the switch will also mark the two color bits used to set the

drop precedence of a packet for Random Early Detection.

The color modes include “Color-Blind” which assumes that the

packet stream is uncolored, and “Color-Aware” which assumes that

the incoming packets are pre-colored. The functional differences

between these modes is described at the beginning of this section

under “trTCM Police Meter.”

Committed Information Rate (CIR) – Rate in kilobits per

second. (Range: 64-10000000 kbps at a granularity of 64 kbps

or maximum port speed, whichever is lower)

The rate cannot exceed the configured interface speed.

Peak Information Rate (PIR) – Rate in kilobits per second.

(Range: 64-1000000 kbps at a granularity of 64 kbps or

maximum port speed, whichever is lower)

The rate cannot exceed the configured interface speed.
