Description Within a sap-ingress QoS policy forwarding class context, the broadcast-policer command is used
to map packets that match the forwarding class and are considered broadcast in nature to the specified
policer-id. The specified policer-id must already exist within the sap-ingress QoS policy. While the
system is determining the forwarding class of a packet, it is also looking up its forwarding destination
based on the ingress service type and the service instance forwarding records. If the service type is
VPLS and the destination MAC address is the broadcast address (ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff), the packet is
classified into the broadcast forwarding type.
Broadcast forwarding type packets are mapped to either an ingress multipoint queue (using the
broadcast queue-id or broadcast queue-id group ingress-queue-group commands) or an ingress
policer (broadcast-policer policer-id). The broadcast and broadcast-policer commands within the
forwarding class context are mutually exclusive. By default, the broadcast forwarding type is mapped
to the SAP ingress default multipoint queue. If the broadcast-policer policer-id command is executed,
any previous policer mapping or queue mapping for the broadcast forwarding type within the
forwarding class is overridden if the policer mapping is successful.
A policer defined within the sap-ingress policy is not actually created on an ingress SAP or a
subscriber using an sla-profile where the policy is applied until at least one forwarding type (unicast,
broadcast, unknown or multicast) from one of the forwarding classes is mapped to the policer. If
insufficient policer resources exist to create the policer for a SAP or subscriber or multi-service site or
ingress policing is not supported on the port associated with the SAP or subscriber or multi-service site,
the initial forwarding class forwarding type mapping will fail.
The broadcast-policer command is ignored for instances of the policer applied to SAPs or subscribers
multiservice site where broadcast packets are not supported.
When the broadcast forwarding type within a forwarding class is mapped to a policer, the broadcast
packets classified to the sub-classes within the forwarding class are also mapped to the policer.
