Chapter 5 Sample QoS configuration 299
Using the Business Policy Switch 2000 Version 1.2
You create IP filters for IP packets that are to be forwarded through the BPS 2000
on specific ingress ports. In each IP packet, there is a differentiated services
(DiffServ) field in the packet header that you can mar k for sp ecific treatment . This
field is called the DiffServ code point (DSCP). The DSCP has a spec ific val ue that
determines how the packet is treated as it travels through the network. As each
packet is examined it will be forwarded or dropped, depending on whether or not
the filter criteria is matched.
You use the IP Filter Creation section of the Rules > IP Classification page when
defining your IP filters.
To define an IP filter:
1Click the Application > QoS > QoS Advanced > Rules > IP Classification
menu option.
The IP Classification page opens (Figure105 and Figure 106).
Note: When you choose the value Ignore, the system matches all fields
for that parameter.
