Usage Guidelines
The set discard-class command associates a discard class ID with a packet. After the discard class is set,
other QoS services such as Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) can operate on the bit settings.
Discard-class indicates the discard portion of the per hop behavior (PHB). The set discard-class command
is typically used in Pipe mode. Discard-class is required when the input PHB marking is used to classify
packets on the output interface.
The set discard-class command is supported only in the ingress direction.Unconditional discard-class
marking is supported.
The discard-class values can be used to specify the type of traffic that is dropped when there is congestion.
1. Marking of the discard class has only local significance on a node.
2. Discard class cannot be associated with a QoS profile in peering mode.
