page 21-28 OmniSwitch AOS Release 7 Network Configuration Guide March 2011
• The destination VLAN condition is only supported in multicast policy rules.
• IP multicast traffic (not IGMP) is treated as regular traffic; QoS functionality works the same way with
this type of traffic, with the exception that the destination port condition does not apply.
• The IP multicast condition works in combination with Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3 destination condi-
tions only if these conditions specify the device that sends the IGMP report packet.
• Source and destination parameters can be combined in Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 conditions.
• In a given rule, ToS or DSCP can be specified for a condition with priority specified for the action.
• Individual items and their corresponding groups cannot be combined in the same condition. For exam-
ple, a source IP address cannot be included in a condition with a source IP network group.
• The Layer 1 destination port condition only applies to bridged traffic, not routed traffic.
• Layer 2 and Layer 3 rules are always effected on bridged and routed traffic. As a result, combining
source or destination TCP/UDP port and IP protocol in a condition is allowed.
For specific information about how to configure policy conditions and actions to create a policy rule, see
“Creating Policies” on page 21-39.
Policy Actions
The following actions are supported and can be combined with other actions.
The CLI prevents you from configuring invalid action combinations that are never allowed; however, it
does allow you to create combinations that are supported in some scenarios. For example, an action
specifying maximum bandwidth can be combined with an action specifying priority.
Supported Policy Actions Table
• ACL (disposition accept, drop, deny)
• Priority/CoS
• 802.1p ToS/DCSP Stamping and Mapping (only
applies to the outer 802.1p value; cannot modify the
inner value)
• Maximum Bandwidth
• Maximum Depth
• Tri-Color Marking (TCM) Rate Limiting
• Shared (shares the bandwidth rate between rules that
specify the same maximum bandwidth action)
• Port Redirection
• Link Aggregate Redirection
• No Cache (disables the logging of rule entries to the
• hardware cache)
• Port Disable
• Permanent Gateway IP
• Mirror
