Context config>qos>network>ingress
Description This command creates a mapping between the DiffServ Code Point (DSCP) of the network ingress
traffic and the forwarding class.
Ingress traffic that matches the specified DSCP will be assigned to the corresponding forwarding class.
Multiple commands can be entered to define the association of some or all sixty-four DiffServ code
points to the forwarding class. For undefined code points, packets are assigned to the forwarding class
specified under the default-action command.
The no form of this command removes the DiffServ code point to forwarding class association. The
default-action then applies to that code point value.
Default none
Parameters dscp-name — The name of the DiffServ code point to be associated with the forwarding class.
DiffServ code point can only be specified by its name and only an existing DiffServ code
point can be specified. The software provides names for the well known code points.
The system-defined names available are as follows. The system-defined names must be
referenced as all lower case exactly as shown in the first column in Table 21 and Table 22
below.
Additional names to code point value associations can be added using the ‘dscp-name dscp-
name dscp-value’ command.
The actual mapping is being done on the dscp-value, not the dscp-name that references the
dscp-value. If a second dscp-name that references the same dscp-value is mapped within the
policy, an error will occur. The second name will not be accepted until the first name is
removed.
