Usage Guidelines
Use the policy-map command to specify the name of the policy map to be created, added to, or modified
before you can configure policies for classes whose match criteria are defined in a class map. Entering the
policy-map command enables policy map configuration mode in which you can configure or modify the
class policies for that policy map.
You can configure class policies in a policy map only if the classes have match criteria defined for them. Use
the class-map and match commands to configure the match criteria for a class.
A single policy map can be attached to multiple interfaces concurrently.
The number of classes per policy-map supported in the egress direction is 8 and ingress direction is 32.
For egress classification, in order to see statistics on all 8 CoSQs, you are recommended to configure all 8
classes including class-default.
