36 ! Creating Classifier Groups and Policy Rules
Classifier Group Command
Use the command described in this section to create classifier groups. See 
Chapter 3, Creating Rate-Limit Profiles for examples of using this command to rate 
limit traffic flows.
classifier-group
! Use to create a classifier group for a policy list and assigns precedence to the 
specific CLACL that is referenced in the group; enters Classifier Group 
Configuration mode, in which you create policy rule configurations related to 
the specified CLACL. 
! Use the precedence keyword to specify the order in which a classifier group is 
evaluated compared to other classifier groups. Classifier groups are evaluated 
from lowest to highest precedence value (for example, a classifier group with a 
precedence of 1 is used before a classifier group with a precedence of 2). 
Classifier groups with equal precedence are evaluated in the order of creation, 
with the group created first having precedence. A default value of 100 is used if 
no precedence is specified. 
! Example
host1(config-policy-list)#classifier-group westfordClacl precedence 150 
! Use the no version to remove the classifier group and its rules from a policy list.
Policy Rule Commands
Use the commands described in this section to specify policy rules for classifier 
groups. 
NOTE: You can use the suspend version of the command to suspend an individual 
entry in a group of forwarding solutions. The forward rule remains active as long 
as there is a reachable or active entry in the group of forwarding solutions. If you 
suspend all entries in the group, the status of the forward rule is changed to 
suspended. 
NOTE: Empty classifier groups have no effect on the router’s classification of 
packets and are ignored by the router. You might inadvertently create empty 
classifier groups in a policy if you use both the newer CLI style and the older CLI 
style, which used the Policy List Configuration mode version of the classifier list 
commands. 
NOTE: The commands listed in this section replace the Policy List Configuration 
mode versions of the command. For example, the color command replaces the 
Policy List Configuration mode version of the color command. The original 
command may be removed completely in a future release.
