Service ingress QoS policy

To create a service ingress policy, define the following:

• a policy ID value. The system does not dynamically assign a value.

• a description. The description provides a brief overview of policy features.

• a default forwarding class for the policy. All packets received on an ingress SAP using this ingress QoS policy are classified to the default forwarding class.

• a default priority for all packets received on an ingress SAP using this policy

• mappings from incoming packet contents to a forwarding class, then separately, from the forwarding class to queue

• forwarding class parameters:

  • Modify the multicast-queue default value to override the default multicast forwarding type queues mapping for fc fc-name.

  • Modify the unknown-queue default value to override the default unknown unicast forwarding type queues mapping for fc fc-name.

  • Modify the broadcast-queue default value to override the default broadcast forwarding type queues mapping for fc fc-name.

• a precedence value for the forwarding class or enqueuing priority when a packet is marked with an IP precedence value

• IP, IPv6, and MAC-based SAP ingress policies to select the appropriate ingress queue and corresponding forwarding class for matched traffic

• a SAP ingress policy created with a template scope. The scope can be modified to exclusive for a special one-time use policy. Otherwise, the template scope enables the policy to be applied to multiple SAPs.

The following displays an service ingress policy configuration:
