To configure a 7210 Port Access Ingress Policy

Purpose

7210 Port Access Ingress Policy allows you to access ports as layer 2 uplinks. As a result, you can apply a single port-based access-ingress policy on ingress of an access port instead of using per SAP ingress policies. This allows a single policy definition to be used to classify and rate-limit all traffic received over access ports.

Meters are mapped to FCs according to the user-defined configuration in the policy. The maximum number of meters supported on a local policy varies depending on the chassis type.
