Configuring and applying QoS policies other than the default policy is optional.
Define the following parameters to configure a network QoS policy (see Default Network QoS Policy Values for default values):
a network policy ID value — the system does not dynamically assign a value
a network policy type — the type of network policy can be ip-interface for IP domain policies (to configure ingress and egress criteria), or ring for bridging domain policies (to configure ring criteria), or default (to set any network policy to its default values)
a description — a text string description of policy features
scope — the policy scope as exclusive or template
egress criteria — you can modify egress criteria to customize the forwarding class to be instantiated. Otherwise, the default values are applied.
dot1p — the dot1p-in-profile and dot1p-out-profile mapping for the forwarding class
DSCP — the DSCP value is used for all GRE and IP packets (in or out of profile) requiring marking that egress on this forwarding class
LSP EXP — the EXP value is used for all MPLS labeled packets (in or out of profile) requiring marking that egress on this forwarding class
ingress criteria — the DSCP to forwarding class mapping for all GRE and IP packets and the MPLS EXP bits to forwarding class mapping for all labeled packets
default-action — the default action to be taken for packets that have undefined DSCP or MPLS EXP bits set. The default-action specifies the forwarding class to which such packets are assigned. The default-action is automatically created when the policy is created.
DSCP — a mapping between the DSCP bits of the network ingress traffic and the forwarding class. Ingress traffic that matches the specified DSCP bits will be assigned to the corresponding forwarding class.
LSP EXP — a mapping between the LSP EXP bits of the network ingress traffic and the forwarding class. Ingress traffic that matches the specified LSP EXP bits will be assigned to the corresponding forwarding class.
ring criteria — the dot1p-to-queue mapping for all packets arriving on a bridging domain port (that is, a ring port or the add/drop port)
default-action — the default action to be taken for packets that have undefined dot1p bits set. The default-action specifies the queue to which such packets are assigned and the profile state of the packets. The default-action is automatically created when the policy is created.
dot1p — a mapping of the dot1p bits of the ingress traffic to the queue and the profile state
