Basic Configurations; Create A Network Qos Policy - Alcatel-Lucent 7210 SAS E OS Quality Of Service Manual

Basic Configurations

A basic network QoS policy must conform to the following:
•
•

•
•

Create a Network QoS Policy

Configuring and applying QoS policies other than the default policy is optional. A default network
policy is applied to each uplink port.
To create an network QoS policy, define the following:

7210 SAS-E OS Quality of Service Guide
Each network QoS policy must have a unique policy ID.
Specify the default-action.
Have a QoS policy scope of template or exclusive.
Have at least one default unicast forwarding class meter.
Have at least one multipoint forwarding class meter.
A network policy ID value. The system will not dynamically assign a value.
Include a description. The description provides a brief overview of policy features.
You can modify egress FC-Dot1p marking map. Otherwise, the default values are applied.
→ Remarking — Always enabled, this command remarks ALL packets that egress on the
specified access uplink port. The remarking is based on the forwarding class to Dot1p
bit mapping defined under the egress node of the network QoS policy.
→ Forwarding class criteria — The forwarding class name represents an egress queue.
Specify forwarding class criteria to define the egress characteristics of the queue and
the marking criteria of packets flowing through it.
→ Dot1p — The Dot1p value is used for all packets requiring marking that egress on this
forwarding class queue that are in or out of profile.
Ingress criteria — Specifies the Dot1p to forwarding class mapping for all packets and
defines Dot1p bits to forwarding class mapping for all packets.
→ Default action — Defines the default action to be taken for packets that have an
undefined Dot1p bits set. The default-action specifies the forwarding class to which
such packets are assigned.
→ Dot1p — Creates a mapping between the Dot1p bits of the network ingress traffic and
the forwarding class. Ingress traffic that matches the specified Dot1p bits will be
assigned to the corresponding forwarding class.
