Diffserv Class Configuration

Selection Criteria

Class Selector -

Along with an option to create a new class, this lists all the existing DiffServ class names, from

which one can be selected. The content of this screen varies based on the selection of this field. If an existing

class is selected then the screen will display the configured class. If '--create--' is selected, another screen appears

to facilitate creation of a new class. The default is the first class created. If no classes exist, the default is

'--create--'.

Class Type -

This lists all the platform supported DiffServ class types from which one can be selected. Possible

options are 'all', 'any', or 'acl'. If 'acl' is (supported and) selected, then an access list (ACL) number is required

which is an integer specifying an existing ACL. Only when a new class is created, this field is a selector field. After

class creation this becomes a non-configurable field displaying the configured class type.

Class Match Selector -

This lists all match criteria from which one can be selected to be added to a specified

class. The match criterion 'Every' denotes that every packet is considered to match the specified class and no

additional input information is needed. The content of this drop down list varies for a specified class based on the

selection of the match criterion 'Reference Class':

If the specified class does not reference any other class, the 'Reference Class' match criterion is included in

the drop down match criteria list. A class reference can be established by selecting 'Reference Class' and

invoking the 'Add Match Criteria' button.

¾

If the specified class references another class, the 'Reference Class' match criterion is not included in the

drop down match criteria list. This prevents the user from trying to add yet another class reference, since a

specified class can reference at most one other class of the same type. Moreover, a 'Remove Class

Reference' button appears on the screen that can be invoked to remove the current class reference.

Configurable Data

Class Name -

This is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string from 1 to 31 characters uniquely identifying a class.

Class name 'default' is reserved and must not be used.

Non-Configurable Data

Class Type -

Displays type of the configured class as 'all', 'any', or 'acl'. Only when a new class is created, this

field is a selector field. After class creation this becomes a non-configurable field.
