Policer Enabled SAP QoS Policy Applicability

Policers are not created on a SAP or context until at least one forwarding class has been mapped
to the policer. Simply creating a policer within a QoS policy does not cause policers to be created
on the SAPs or s where the policy is applied.
SAP QoS policy applicability and policy policer forwarding class mappings are dependent on
policer resource availability. Attempting to map the first forwarding class to a policer causes the
policer to be created on the SAPs or where the policy is applied. If the forwarding plane where the
SAP or exists either doesn't support policers or has insufficient resources to create the policer for
the object, the forwarding class mapping will fail.
Once a forwarding class is successfully mapped to a policer within the policy, attempting to apply
the policy to a SAP or a where the policer cannot be created either due to lack of policer support
or insufficient policer resources will fail.
