Configuring a QoS policy

Overview

A QoS policy is a set of class-behavior associations and defines the shaping, policing, or other QoS
actions to take on different classes of traffic.
A class is a set of match criteria for identifying traffic and it uses the AND or OR operator:
• AND—A packet must match all the criteria to match the class.
OR—A packet matches the class if it matches any of the criteria in the class.
•
A traffic behavior defines a set of QoS actions to take on packets, such as priority marking and redirect.
By associating a traffic behavior with a class in a QoS policy, you apply the specific set of QoS actions
to the class of traffic.
Figure 5 shows how to configure a QoS policy.

To define a class, specify its name and then configure the match criteria in class view.
