queue. If the RuleAction is 'retagprio' then this value is priority

 

which is to be tagged into the outgoing packet and it is also used

 

along with egress port traffic class mapping table, to determine the

 

output queue. This field can be modified only if 'status' has the

 

value 'disable'.

 

 

Admin status

Admin status of the rule

 

 

Stats admin status

Admin status of rule statistics. Statitics of a rule are collected only

 

when this field is set to 'enable'. This field can be modified only if

 

'status' has the value 'disable'. NOTE - Statistics may not reflect

 

correctly the number of egress mcast, bcast and unknown unicast

 

packets hitting the rule.

 

 

Rule Priority

Tells the priority of the rule. Based on this priority value, the rule

 

is created in fast or slow memory. This field can be modified only if

 

'status' has the value 'disable'. This field is ignored if the

 

'ruleAction' has value 'clfrdef'

 

 

Rule Direction

Specifies whether the rule will be applied on incoming interfaces

 

(ingress)or outgoing interfaces(egress).

 

 

ApplyWhenReq

This specifies whether this rule is to be applied only when

 

required. Rule description field is mandatory if this field is set to

 

value 'enable'. This field can be modified only if 'status' has the

 

value 'disable'. This field is ignored if the 'ruleAction' has value

 

'clfrdef'.

 

 

Pkt Type

This field specifies the types of packets on which this rule is to be

 

applied. 'Mcast' means this rule is valid for multicast packets,

 

'Bcast' means this rule is valid for broadcast packets and 'Ucast'

 

means this rule is valid for unicast packets. This field is valid only if

 

'ruleDir' is 'out'. This field can be modified only if 'status' has the

 

value 'disable'.

 

 

Application

Description of the application that receives packets matching this

Description

rule. This field is valid and mandatory only if RuleAction is

 

'sendtocontrol' or RuleApplyWhenReq is 'enable'. This field can be

 

modified only if 'status' has the value 'disable'

 

 

Snoop Level

Snoop level specifies whether packet will be snooped directly from

 

Interface or from Bridge after applying Bridging functionality .If

 

none of the Rule actions is 'sendtoControl' or 'copytocontrol', then

 

this field has no significance. This field can be modified only if

 

'status' has the value 'disable'.

 

 

Expression Id

Identifies the expression id from the Generic Filter Expression

 

Table to be used. This field is used only if 'ruleAction' is 'exprdef'.

 

In absence of this field, the default relationship between all
