Command Usage

Use the policy-mapcommand to specify the name of the policy map, and then use the class command to configure policies for traffic that matches criteria defined in a class map.

A policy map can contain multiple class statements that can be applied to the same interface with the service-policycommand (page 56-7).

You must create a Class Map (page 56-4)before assigning it to a Policy Map.

Example

This example creates a policy called “rd_policy,” uses the class command to specify the previously defined “rd_class,” uses the set command to classify the service that incoming packets will receive, and then uses the police command to limit the average bandwidth to 100,000 Kbps, the burst rate to 1522 bytes, and configure the response to drop any violating packets.

Console(config)#policy-map rd_policy Console(config-pmap)#class rd_class Console(config-pmap-c)#set ip dscp 3 Console(config-pmap-c)#police 100000 1522 exceed-action drop Console(config-pmap-c)#

Syntax
