Usage Guidelines 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 or modified. After you enter
the policy-map command, the switch enters policy-map configuration mode. You can configure or
modify the class policies for that policy map and decide how to treat the classified traffic.
These configuration commands are available in policy-map configuration mode:
•
•
•
•
•
To return to global configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use
the end command.
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.
