QoS Class Dialog Box—Marking Tab

Use the Marking tab of the QoS Class dialog box to classify packets. Traffic policers and shapers use these classifications to ensure adherence to the contracted level of service. Downstream devices use this classification to identify the packets and apply the appropriate QoS functions to them.

Note The Marking tab is unavailable when you define a QoS policy on the control plane.

Navigation Path

Go to the QoS Class Dialog Box, page K-205, then click the Marking tab.

Description

 

 

 

Enable Marking

 

When selected, enables you to mark the traffic in this QoS class with a

 

 

specific precedence or DSCP value (regardless of any value the traffic might

 

 

have had when it first entered the device). This mark enables downstream

 

 

devices to identify the traffic and apply the appropriate QoS features to it.

 

 

When deselected, disables all marking options for the selected QoS class.

 

 

The traffic in this QoS class maintains its original precedence or DSCP

 

 

value, if any.
