Command History
Usage Guidelines Before using the class class-map-name command in policy-map configuration mode, you must create
the class by using the class-map class-map-name global configuration command. The class
class-default is the class to which traffic is directed if that traffic does not match any of the match criteria
in the configured class maps.
Use the policy-map global configuration command to identify the policy map and to enter policy-map
configuration mode. After specifying a policy map, you can configure a policy for new classes or modify
a policy for any existing classes in that policy map.
You attach the policy map to a port by using the service-policy interface configuration command.
After entering the class command, you enter policy-map class configuration mode, and these
configuration commands are available:
• bandwidth: specifies the bandwidth allocated for a class belonging to a policy map. For more
information, see the bandwidth command.
• exit: exits policy-map class configuration mode and returns to policy-map configuration mode.
• no: returns a command to its default setting.
• police: defines an individual policer for the classified traffic. The policer specifies the bandwidth
limitations and the action to take when the limits are exceeded. For more information, see the police
and policy-map class commands.
class-map-name Name of a class map created by using the class-map global configuration
command.
class-default The system default class. This class matches all unclassified traffic. You
cannot create or delete the default class.
