the egress priority queue. If nodrop is specified, matching frames previously
marked for dropping are not dropped. If sendeport is specified and the frame
is not a broadcast, multicast, DLF frame or marked for dropping or to be sent to
the CPU, the new output port is set to the value of the port parameter. If
sendnonunicasttoport is specified, matching frames that are broadcast or DLF,
multicast, marked for dropping or to be sent to the CPU are sent to the egress
port specified by the port parameter. If setipdscp is specified and the frame is
an IPv4 frame, the Diffserv Codepoint field in the frame is set to the value
specified by the newipdscp parameter. Actions that modify both the TOS and
DSCP values in the frame are mutually exclusive. The default is forward.
If the setpriority action changes the priority of a tagged packet that has been
layer 3 switched, then the vid of the transmitted packet is corrupted. The
corruption occurs when the packet is both received and transmitted with a
VLAN tag. Do not use the setpriority action for layer 3 switched VLAN-tagged
packets.
On Rapier i Series switches, the above warning does not apply. On Rapier i
Series switches only, the setpriority action correctly transmits the VIDs of
layer 3 switched packets.
If the sendeport action directs packets to a particular egress port, then the
packet is transmitted from the mirror port with a VLAN tag.
The dipaddr parameter specifies the destination IP addresses to match.
The eport parameter specifies the egress port number to be matched by this
filter entry, if the emport parameter in the filter match is set to true. The default
is no port, that is, the filter entry does not apply to any egress ports. If the
emport parameter in the filter match is set to false, the eport parameter is
ignored, and the filter entry applies to all egress ports.
On the Rapier i Series switches only, the ipdscp parameter indicates the value
to match to the IPv4 packet Diffserv Codepoint field for this entry. The range of
values for this parameter is from 0 to 63.
The iport parameter specifies the ingress port number to be matched by this
filter entry, if the import parameter in the filter match is set to true. The default
is no port, that is, the filter entry does not apply to any ingress ports. If the
import parameter in the filter match is set to false, the iport parameter is
ignored, and the filter entry applies to all ingress ports.
On the Rapier i Series switches only, the newipdscp parameter indicates the
value to set in an IPv4 packet Diffserv Codepoint field when the action
parameter is set to setipdscp. The range of values for this parameter is from 0
to 63.
The newtos parameter specifies the new type of service value, assigning a new
value to the TOS precedence field in the IP Header. This parameter is used
when the action parameter is set to settos.
The port parameter specifies the new output port number. This port overrides
the egress port selected by the forwarding database.
The priority parameter specifies the packet priority. There are eight levels of
priority, from 0 to 7. This parameter is used when the action parameter is set to
setpriority or sendcos.
