Configuring QoS Using Map Groups
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Network Configuration Guide April 2006 page 24-43
Using Map Groups
Map groups are used to map 802.1p, ToS, or DSCP values to different values. On the OmniSwitch 6600,
the following mapping scenarios are supported:
802.1p to 802.1p
ToS or DSCP to 802.1p (the reverse is not supported)
Note. Map groups are associated with a policy action.
Commands used for creating map groups include the following:
policy map group
policy action map

Sample Map Group Configuration

1Create the map group with mapping values. For detailed information about map groups and how to set
them up, see “How Map Groups Work” on page 24-44 and “Creating Map Groups” on page24-44.
-> policy map group tosGroup 1-2:5 4:5 5-6:7
2Attach the map group to a policy action. See “Creating Policy Actions” on page24-25 for more infor-
mation about creating policy actions.
-> policy action tosMap map tos to 802.1p using tosGroup
Note. (Optional) Use the show policy map group command to verify the map group.
