To configure a 7210 FC Meter Map policy

Purpose

A 7210 FC Meter Map policy is assigned to a 7210, 7250 and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policy; see To configure a 7210, 7250, and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policy.

Service meters for SAP ingress provide an option to use meter resources from the ingress service-meter pool, which provides a larger number of meters/policers for use by access SAPs. This option is available only with table-based classification; it is not available when CAM-based classification is used. The Use SVC Meter Pool parameter must be set to true in the 7210, 7250 and 1830 SAP Access Ingress policy.

Note: Table-based classification uses meters from either the TCAM pool or the service meter pool, based on the SAP ingress policy type. If the SAP ingress policy is configured to use the use-svc-meter-pool parameter, the policy uses the service meter pool, otherwise the policy uses the TCAM meter pool.

7210 FC Meter Map policy attached to the 7210 SAP-ingress QoS policy supports only DSCP and Dot1p classifications. For the Policy ID parameter, the configurable values are 1 or 2. The default policy uses an ID values of 1; a user-defined policy uses an ID value of 2.
