4.4.2.1.2 Network QoS Policy Commands
network
Syntax [no] network network-policy-id [create] [network-policy-type {ip-interface | ring | default}]
Context config>qos
Description This command creates or edits a QoS network policy. The network policy defines the
treatment that GRE, IP, or MPLS packets receive as they ingress and egress the network
port.
The network-policy-type keyword defines the type of network policy that will be created. The
ip-interface type network policy is assigned to router interfaces. The ring type network policy
is assigned to bridging domain ports on a ring adapter card.
Using the network-policy-type keyword is optional. If network-policy-type is not used, a
default ip-interface policy is created.
Network policy-id 1 exists as the default policy that is applied to all network interfaces by
default. Network policy-id 1 cannot be modified or deleted, and is reapplied when the
network-policy-type default keyword is used.
If a new network policy is created for the IP domain (for instance, policy-id 2), only the default
action and egress forwarding class parameters are identical to the default policy-id 1. A new
network policy does not contain the default DSCP-to-FC or MPLS EXP-to-FC mapping. To
create a new network policy that includes the default ingress DSCP-to-FC or MPLS
EXP-to-FC mapping, the default network policy-id 1 can be copied (using the copy
command). You can modify parameters or use the no modifier to remove an object from the
configuration. Similarly, the copy and modify process is used to create a new ring type
network policy, where the dot1p-to-queue and profile state mapping are available for use in
the new policy.
Any changes made to an existing policy, using any of the sub-commands, will be applied
immediately to all network interfaces where this policy is applied. For this reason, when many
changes are required on a policy, it is highly recommended that the policy be copied to a work
area policy-id. That work-in-progress policy can be modified until complete and then written
over the original policy-id. Use the config qos copy command to maintain policies in this
manner.
Note: With the addition of ring ports on the 2-port 10GigE (Ethernet) Adapter card, the
network-policy-type keyword allows the creation of network QoS policies for IP interfaces
in the IP domain (that is, ingress and egress network ports) and for ring policies in the
bridging domain.
