on the policy map defined by the class class-default policy-map configuration command.
To return to global configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use
the end command.
Before you can configure 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 or modified. Entering this
command also enables the policy-map configuration mode in which you can configure or modify the
class policies for that policy map.
