Classification Rule
(Read-Only) See the Classification Rule (Priority, Classification, and Definition) of
the line selected in the Priority Classification Configuration screen. For
example, in Figure 8-8, the Classification Rule – 1, Ether II Type,
0x0800 (DOD IP) – was selected in the Priority Classification
Configuration screen to access the Protocol Port Configuration screen.
All ports with YES in the Classify columns would be those ports
associated with PID 1 with an Ether II Type Classification. This causes
Ether II Type frames received by those ports to be transmitted with a
priority value of 1 and according to the Classification Precedence
Rules.
Port
(Read-Only) See the number of each port.
Classify
(Toggle) See which ports are set to the PID/Classification indicated in the
Classification Rule field (see Figure 8-8). The Classify field toggles
between YES and NO, which determines whether or not the associated
port is set to the Classification Rule.
NOTE: As each Classify field is highlighted, the Event Message
Line (not shown) at the top of the screen indicates the port type.
For example: Fast Ethernet Front P anel, FTM Backp lane P ort 3,
and Gigabit Ethernet VHSIM.
If a port cannot be configured, “NO” displays without brackets.
For details about assigning ports, refer to Section 8.7.1.
SET ALL PORTS
(Toggle) Toggle between YES and NO. This determines whether or not all ports
will be assigned to the classification rule shown in the Classification
Rule field. NO is the default. For details about setting all ports
simultaneously, refer to Section 8.7.1.
