After entering the policy-map command, you enter policy-map configuration mode, and these
configuration commands are available:
•
•
•
•
•
To return to global configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use
the end command.
Before configuring policies for classes whose match criteria are defined in a class map, use the
policy-map command to specify the name of the policy map to be created, added to, or modified.
Entering the policy-map command also enables the policy-map configuration mode in which you can
configure or modify the class policies for that policy map.
You can configure class policies in a policy map only if the classes have match criteria defined for them.
To configure the match criteria for a class, use the class-map global configuration and match class-map
configuration commands. You define packet classification on a physical-port basis.
