Service Ingress QoS Policy Forwarding Class Commands
functions are only enforced when the SAP is associated with an IP or subscriber interface (in an IES ). When
the policy is applied to a Layer 2 SAP (for example, Epipe or VPLS), the remarking definitions are silently
ignored.
In the case where the policy is applied to a Layer 3 SAP, the out-of-profile remarking definition will be
applied to packets that have been classified to the forwarding class or sub-class. It is possible for a packet to
match a classification command that maps the packet to a particular forwarding class or sub-class only to
have a more explicit (higher priority match) override the association. Only the highest priority match
forwarding class or sub-class association will drive the out-of-profile marking.
The out-remark command is only applicable to ingress IP routed packets that are considered out-of-profile.
The profile of a SAP ingress packet is affected by either the explicit in-profile/out-of-profile definitions or
the ingress policing function applied to the packet. The following table shows the effect of the out-remark
command on received SAP ingress packets. Within the out-of-profile IP packet's ToS field, either the six
DSCP bits or the three precedence bits are remarked.
