To configure a 7210/7250 DSCP classification policy

Purpose

A 7210/7250 DSCP classification policy associates ingress DSCP values with forwarding classes and profiles. The policy is assigned to 7210, 7250 and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policies, 7210 and 1830 Network policies, and 7250 Ingress CoS policies. For table-based DSCP ingress classification, the policy is assigned to Ethernet ports and L3 interfaces configured for RVPLS; see Table-based ingress classification on the 7210 SAS.

The NFM-P provides a default 7210/7250 DSCP classification policy. The default policy is applied if no user-configured policy is explicitly assigned.

The 7210 SAS-K supports 7210/7250 DSCP classification policies assigned to access ingress and network policies on the device.

The 7210 SAS-Mxp and 7210 SAS-R support 7210/7250 DSCP classification policies assigned to access ingress policies, access ports, and L3 access interfaces configured for RVPLS.

Steps
 

Choose Policies→QoS→SROS QoS→Ingress Classification→7210/7250 DSCP from the NFM-P main menu. The 7210/7250 DSCP form opens.


Click Create or choose an existing policy and click Properties. The DSCP Classification Policy (Create|Edit) form opens.


Configure the required parameters on the General tab.

The values configured in the Default Forwarding Class panel are applied to packets that do not match any of the associations on the Ingress DSCP tab; see Step 5.


Click on the Ingress DSCP tab.


Associate DSCP bits with FCs and profiles.

  1. Click Create, or choose an existing entry and click Properties. The Ingress DSCP, DSCP Classification (Create) form opens.
