Configuring Quality of Service Defining Policies A policy is a collection of classes, each of which is a combination of a class map and a QoS action to apply to matching traffic. Classes are applied in a first-fit manner within a policy. Before configuring policies for classes whose match criteria are defined in a class map, define a class map or specify the name of the policy map to be created, added to, or modified. Class policies can be configured in a policy map only if the classes have defined match criteria. An aggregate policer can be applied to multiple classes in the same policy map, but an aggregate policer cannot be used across different policy maps. Network managers define an aggregate policer if the policer is shared with multiple classes. Policers in one port cannot be shared with other policers in another device. Traffic from two different ports can be aggregated for policing purposes. To define a policy: 1. Click QoS > Advanced Mode > Policy Table. The Policy Table page opens: Policy Table The Policy Table contains the following fields: ❏ Policy Name - Displays the policy name. 13-16 www.hp.com Embedded Web System User Guide
