Configuring traffic redirecting

This feature is supported only on SAP modules operating in bridge mode.
Traffic redirecting is the action of redirecting the packets matching the specific match criteria to a
certain location for processing.
The following redirect actions are supported:
•
Redirecting traffic to the CPU—Redirects packets that require processing by the CPU to the
CPU.
•
Redirecting traffic to an interface—Redirects packets that require processing by an interface
to the interface. Note that this action applies to only Layer 2 packets, and the target interface
must be a Layer 2 interface.
•
Redirecting traffic to the next hop—Redirects packets that require processing by an
interface to the interface. This action only applies to Layer 3 packets.

Configuration guidelines

•
The actions of redirecting traffic to the CPU and redirecting traffic to an interface are mutually
exclusive with each other in the same traffic behavior.
•
You can use the display traffic behavior { system-defined | user-defined } [ behavior-name ]
[ | { begin | exclude | include } regular-expression ] command to view the traffic redirecting
configuration.

Configuration procedure

To configure traffic redirecting:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Create a class and enter
class view.
3. Configure match criteria.
4. Return to system view.
5. Create a behavior and
enter behavior view.
6. Configure a traffic
redirecting action.
7. Return to system view.
8. Create a policy and enter
policy view.
9. Associate the class with
the traffic behavior in the
QoS policy.
10. Return to system view.
