Note: It is recommended that you use Enterasys Networks NetSight Policy Manager as an
alternative to CLI for configuring policy classification on the D-Series devices.
Note: B3, C3, and G3 devices support profile-based CoS traffic rate limiting only. Policy rules
specifying CoS will only rate limit on D2, C2 and B2 devices.
