Defining a traffic class

Configuration guidelines

When you configure a traffic class, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
If the traffic class includes the customer-vlan-id match criterion, a QoS policy that contains the
•
traffic class can be applied only to interfaces.
If the traffic class includes both the control-plane protocol or control-plane protocol-group criterion
•
and other criteria, the QoS policy that contains the traffic class cannot be applied correctly.
• If the traffic class includes the control-plane protocol or control-plane protocol-group match
criterion, the QoS policy that contains the traffic class can be applied only to a control plane.
To configure multiple values for a match criterion, perform the following tasks:
•
Set the logical operator to OR.
Configure multiple if-match commands for the match criterion.
For the customer-vlan-id and service-vlan-id match criteria, you can configure multiple values in
one if-match command when the logical operator is OR or AND.
• If the configured logical operator is AND for the traffic class, the actual logical operator for the rules
in an ACL match criterion is OR.

Configuration procedure

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Create a traffic class and
enter traffic class view.
3. Configure match criteria.

Command

[ operator { and | or } ]
if-match match-criteria
Description
Matches an ACL.
The acl-number argument has the following value ranges:
•
2000 to 3999 for IPv4 ACLs.
•
2000 to 3999 for IPv6 ACLs.
•
4000 to 4999 for Ethernet frame header ACLs.
•
5000 to 5999 for user-defined ACLs.
The acl-name argument is a case-insensitive string of 1 to 63 characters,
which must start with an English letter. To avoid confusion, make sure the
argument is not all.
Matches all packets.

configured.
By default, no match criterion is
configured.
