Policy Configuration Overview
16-6 Configuring Policy
Table 16-3 provides the set policy rule data values that can be entered for a particular classification
type, and the mask bits that can be entered for each classifier.
Table 16-2 Policy Rule Traffic Descriptions/Classifications
Traffic
Classification
Description
Precedence
Level
macsource Classifies based on MAC source address. 1
macdest Classifies based on MAC destination address. 2
ipsourcesocket Classifies based on source IP address and optional post-fixed L4
TCP/UDP port.
12
ipdestsocket Classifies based on destination IP address and optional post-fixed
L4 TCP/UDPport.
13
udpsourceport Classifies based on UDP source port. 15
udpdestport Classifies based on UDP destination port. 16
tcpsourceport Classifies based on TCP source port. 17
tcpdestport Classifies based on TCP destination port. 18
iptos Classifies based on Type of Service field in IP packet. 21
ipproto Classifies based on protocol field in IP packet. 22
ether Classifies based on type field in Ethernet II packet. 25
