Classifier Management Introduction
6-9
Software Reference for SwitchBlade x3100 Series Switches (Access and Security)
• Layer 2 protocols - Ethernet encapsulation type - Packets are classified depending on the specific protocol
type of each frame. Different values indicate how the packet is formatted. For more details on values see the
ETHFORMAT parameter in the CREATE CLASSIFIER command in Ta b l e 6 -2 .
• Layer 3 protocols - Frames are classified based on any value for Layer 3 protocols. The system can match
based on any Layer 3 field regardless of the Layer 2 frame type (as long as it is supported).
• Source/destination IP address - Frames are classified based on an IP mask so that frames can be allowed on a
partial match.
• Layer 4 protocol (TCP/UDP, etc.) - Frames are classified based on specific Layer 4 TCP or UDP destination
and source port numbers contained within the header of an IP frame.
Ta b l e 6- 2 lists the available classifiers match rules.
TABLE 6-2 Classifiers Match Rules
Parameter Description
[VID={1..4095|ANY}] The source VLAN the packet is associated with when received by the
switch.
- ANY - match all packets with any VLANID value.
[VPRIORITY={0..7|ANY}] This matches the VLAN ID specified with the User Priority frame
- ANY - match all packets with any VPRIORITY value.
This match rule is used to set up the class of service queues. Refer to 6.7.
[LSAP={NETBIOS|lsap-value|ANY}] The LSAP match rule field matches on any packet with the specified LSAP
value.
LSAP refers to the combination of the DSAP (Destination Service Access
Point) and SSAP (Source Service Access Point) octets in an 802.3 Ethernet
frame. The value may be entered in decimal or in hex but must be less than
or equal to 4095.
The value "NETBIOS" can be used to specify the LSAP value for that proto-
col (0xF0F0). The value "ANY" matches any LSAP value.
[IPDEST={ipaddress-mask|MULTI-
CAST|ANY}]
The destination IP address (either host or subnet) of the IP packet.
IP address ranges are specified using a valid IP address or valid subnet and
mask. A range is specified using a ‘/’ character (such as 1.0.0.0/8).
MULTICAST means all packets with a multicast address.
ANY - match all IP packets with any IPDEST value.
