Syntax Description

Command Modes Global configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines Before configuring policies for classes whose match criteria are defined in a class map, use the
policy-map command to specify the name of the policy map to be created or modified. After you enter
the policy-map command, the switch enters policy-map configuration mode. You can configure or
modify the class policies for that policy map and decide how to treat the classified traffic.
These configuration commands are available in policy-map configuration mode:
• class: defines the classification match criteria for the specified class map. For more information, see
the
“class” section on page 2-35.
• description: describes the policy map (up to 200 characters).
• exit: exits policy-map configuration mode and returns you to global configuration mode.
• no: removes a previously defined policy map.
• rename: renames the current policy map.
To return to global configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use
the end command.
You can configure class policies in a policy map only if the classes have match criteria defined for them.
To configure the match criteria for a class, use the class-map global configuration and match class-map
configuration commands.
policy-map-name Name of the policy map.
