An egress profile reclassification overrides the ingress-derived profile of a packet and may set it to hard-inplus-profile, hard-in-profile, hard-out-of-profile, or hard-exceed-profile. A packet that has not been reclassified at egress retains its soft-in-profile or soft-out-of-profile status.
Egress inplus-profile and in-profile (including soft-in-profile and hard-in-profile) packets use the child policer’s high threshold-be value within the child policer’s PIR bucket while soft-out-of-profile and hard-out-of-profile packets use the child policer’s low threshold-be value. Egress hard-exceed-profile packets are not subject to any threshold control in the child's PIR bucket if enable-exceed-pir is configured; otherwise, they are discarded.
