Configuring QoS

Saving Rules

The save option marks the policy rule so that the rule will be captured in an ASCII text file (using the
configuration snapshot
command or copy running-config working
If the save option is removed from a rule, the qos apply command may activate the rule for the current
session, but the rule will not be saved over a reboot. Typically, the no save option is used for temporary
policies that you do not want saved in the switch configuration file.
To remove the save option from a policy rule, use no with the save keyword. For example:
-> policy rule rule5 no save
To reconfigure the rule as saved, use the policy rule command with the save option. For example:
-> policy rule rule5 save
For more information about the configuration snapshot, write memory, and copy running-config
working commands, see the OmniSwitch 6600 Switch Management Guide and the OmniSwitch CLI Refer-

Logging Rules

Logging a rule may be useful for determining the source of firewall attacks. To specify that the switch
should log information about flows that match the specified policy rule, use the policy rule command with
the log option. For example:
-> policy rule rule5 log
To stop the switch from logging information about flows that match a particular rule, use no with the log
keyword. For example:
-> policy rule rule5 no log

Deleting Rules
