Creating QoS Policies
Use the Traffic > DiffServ (Configure Policy) page to create a policy map that can be
attached to multiple interfaces. A policy map is used to group one or more class
map statements (page 258), modify service tagging, and enforce bandwidth
policing. A policy map can then be bound by a service policy to one or more
interfaces (page 265).
Configuring QoS policies requires several steps. A class map must first be
configured which indicates how to match the inbound packets according to an
access list, a DSCP or IP Precedence value, or a member of specific VLAN, a CoS
value, or a source port. A policy map must then be configured to indicate the
boundary parameters used for monitoring inbound traffic, and the action to take
for conforming and non-conforming traffic. A policy map may contain one or more
classes based on previously defined class maps.
In addition, the flow rate of inbound traffic can be monitored and the response to
conforming and non-conforming traffic set.
