Defining a Layer 3 and Layer 4 Policy Map Description

OL-11157-01
To configure a Layer 3 and Layer 4 policy map that defines the different actions
applied to traffic that passes through the ACE, use the policy-map multi-match
configuration command. The ACE attempts to match multiple classes within the
Layer 3 and Layer 4 policy map to allow for multi-feature policies. The ACE
executes the action for only one matching class within each of the class sets. The
definition of which classes are in the same class set depends on the actions applied
to the classes; the ACE associates each policy map action with a specific set of
classes.
The syntax of this command is:
policy-map multi-match map_name
The map_name argument specifies the name assigned to the policy map. Enter an
unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum of 64 alphanumeric
characters.
When you use this command, you will access policy map configuration mode.
For example, to create a Layer 3 and Layer 4 application protocol inspection
policy map, enter:
host1/Admin(config)# policy-map multi-match
L4_HTTP_APP_INSPECTION_POLICY
host1/Admin(config-pmap)#
To remove a policy map from the ACE, enter:
host1/Admin(config)# no policy-map multi-match
L4_HTTP_APP_INSPECTION_POLICY
To provide a brief summary about the Layer 3 and Layer 4 policy map, use the
description command in policy map configuration mode.
The syntax of this command is:
