DiffServ Overview
To use DiffServ for QoS, you must first define the following categories and their criteria:
1.
Class. Create classes and define class criteria.
2.
Policy. Create policies, associate classes with policies, and define policy statements.
3.
Service. Add a policy to an inbound interface.
Packets are classified and processed based on defined criteria. The classification criteria are
defined by a class. The processing is defined by a policy's attributes. Policy attributes can be
defined on a per-class instance basis, and it is these attributes that are applied when a match
occurs. A policy can contain multiples classes. When the policy is active, the actions taken
depend on which class matches the packet.
The configuration process begins with defining one or more match criteria for a class. Then
one or more classes are added to a policy. Policies are then added to interfaces.
Packet processing begins by testing the class match criteria for a packet.
The All class type option specifies that each match criteria within a class must evaluate to
true for a packet to match that class. Classes are tested in the order in which they were
added to the policy.
A policy is applied to a packet when a class match within that policy is found.
