Policy Classification Configuration Summary
SecureStack C2 devices support policy profile‐based provisioning of network resources by
allowing IT administrators to:
• Create, change or remove policy profiles based on business‐specific use of network services.
• Permit or deny access to specific services by creating and assigning classification rules which
map user profiles to protocol‐based frame filtering policies configured for a particular VLAN
or Class of Service (CoS).
• Assign or unassign ports to policy profiles so that only ports activated for a profile will be
allowed to transmit frames accordingly.
Configuring Policy Profiles

Purpose

To review, create, change and remove user profiles that relate to business‐driven policies for
managing network resources.
Policy Classification Configuration
Note: It is recommended that you use Enterasys Networks NetSight Policy Manager as an
alternative to CLI for configuring policy classification on the SecureStack C2 devices.
Note: B3, C3, and G3 devices support profile-based CoS traffic rate limiting only. Policy rules
specifying CoS will only rate limit on C2 and B2 devices, including when they are configured on
mixed stacks containing B3 and C3 devices.
