Applying DSCP and VLAN Match Criteria on a Service Queue
You can configure Layer 3 class maps which contain both a Layer 3 Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) and IP VLAN IDs as match
criteria to filter incoming packets on a service queue on the switch.
To configure a Layer 3 class map to classify traffic according to both an IP VLAN ID and DSCP value, use the match ip vlan vlan-
id command in class-map input configuration mode. You can include the class map in a policy map, and apply the class and policy map to a
service queue using the service-queue command. In this way, the system applies the match criteria in a class map according to queue
priority (queue numbers closer to 0 have a lower priority).
To configure IP VLAN and DSCP match criteria in a Layer 3 class map, and apply the class and policy maps to a service queue:
1 Create a match-any or a match-all Layer 3 class map, depending on whether you want the packets to meet all or any of the match
criteria. By default, a Layer 3 class map is created if you do not enter the layer2 option with the class-map command. When you
create a class map, you enter the class-map configuration mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
Dell(conf)#class-map match-all pp_classmap
2 Configure a DSCP value as a match criterion.
CLASS-MAP mode
Dell(conf-class-map)#match ipdscp 5
3 Configure an IP VLAN ID as a match criterion.
CLASS-MAP mode
Dell(conf-class-map)#match ip vlan 5
4 Create a QoS input policy.
CONFIGURATION mode
Dell(conf)#qos-policy-input pp_qospolicy
5 Configure the DSCP value to be set on matched packets.
QOS-POLICY-IN mode
Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#set ip-dscp 5
6 Create an input policy map.
CONFIGURATION mode
Dell(conf)#policy-map-input pp_policmap
7 Create a service queue to associate the class map and QoS policy map.
POLICY-MAP mode
Dell(conf-policy-map-in)#service-queue 0 class-map pp_classmap qos-policy pp_qospolicy
Ordering ACL Rules
When you link class-maps to queues using the service-queue command, the system matches the class-maps according to queue
priority (queue numbers closer to 0 have lower priorities).
For example, as described in the previous example, class-map cmap2 is matched against ingress packets before cmap1.
ACLs acl1 and acl2 have overlapping rules because the address range 20.1.1.0/24 is within 20.0.0.0/8. Therefore (without the keyword
order), packets within the range 20.1.1.0/24 match positive against cmap1 and are buffered in queue 7, although you intended for these
packets to match positive against cmap2 and be buffered in queue 4.
