Policy overview
Policy lists allow you to control the ingress and egress of traffic to a router or port. You can use
policies to manage security, determine packet priority through an interface, implement quality of
service, or determine routing for a specific application or user. Each policy list consists of a set
of rules determining the behavior of a packet entering or leaving the interface on which the list is
applied.
This section provides an overview of policy lists on the G250/G350 and includes the following
topics:
