Dell Networking N2000, N3000, and N4000 series switches software
supports the Traffic Conditioning Policy type which is associated with an
inbound traffic class and specifies the actions to be performed on packets
meeting the class rules:
–
Marking the packet with a given DSCP, IP precedence, or CoS value.
Traffic to be processed by the DiffServ feature requires an IP header if
the system uses IP Precedence or IP DSCP marking.
–
Policing packets by dropping or re-marking those that exceed the
class's assigned data rate.
–
Counting the traffic within the class.
•
Service: Assigns a policy to an interface for inbound traffic.
NOTE:
You can use an 802.1X authenticator or RADIUS server to dynamically
assign DiffServ filters to ports when a host connects to a port and authenticates
by using 802.1X. For more information, see "How Does the Authentication Server
Assign DiffServ Filters?" on page 511
