Configuring Re-marking

Context

Re-marking allows the device to re-mark packets matching traffic classification rules so that packets are scheduled or forwarded based on re-marked priorities or flag bits.

Procedure

1. Configure a traffic classifier.

   1. Run system-view

      The system view is displayed.

   2. Run traffic classifier classifier-name [ type { and | or } ]

      A traffic classifier is created and the traffic classifier view is displayed, or the view of an existing traffic classifier is displayed.

      and is the logical operator between rules in a traffic classifier, which means that:

      • If a traffic classifier contains ACL rules, packets match the traffic classifier only if they match one ACL rule and all the non-ACL rules.

      • If a traffic classifier does not contain any ACL rules, packets match the traffic classifier only if they match all the rules in the classifier.

      The logical operator or means that packets match a traffic classifier if they match one or more rules in the classifier.

      By default, the relationship between rules in a traffic classifier is or.

   3. Run if-match

      Matching rules are defined for the traffic classifier.

      For details about matching rules in a traffic classifier, see "Configuring a Traffic Classifier" in "MQC Configuration" of the CloudEngine 12800 and 12800E Series Switches Configuration Guide - QoS Configuration Guide.

   4. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.

   5. Run quit

      Exit from the traffic classifier view.

2. Configure a traffic behavior.

   1. Run traffic behavior behavior-name

      A traffic behavior is created and the traffic behavior view is displayed, or the view of an existing traffic behavior is displayed.

   2. Run the following commands as required.

      • (For CE12800 and CE12800E configured with ED-E, EG-E, and EGA-E series cards) Run remark 8021p 8021p-value

        The device is configured to re-mark the 802.1p priority in packets matching the traffic classifier.

      • (For CE12800E configured with FD-X series cards) Run remark 8021p { 8021p-value | inner-8021p }

        The device is configured to re-mark the 802.1p priority in packets matching the traffic classifier.

      • Run remark dscp { dscp-name | dscp-value }

        The device is configured to re-mark the DSCP priority in packets matching the traffic classifier.

      • Run remark local-precedence { local-precedence-name | local-precedence-value } [ green | yellow | red ]

        The device is configured to re-mark the internal priority in packets matching the traffic classifier.

      • Run remark vxlan reserved-value reserved-value

        The device is configured to re-mark the VXLAN reserved field in packets matching the traffic classifier.

        Only the CE12800E supports this command.

      • Run remark qos-local-id qos-local-id

        The device is configured to re-mark the local ID in packets matching the traffic classifier.

        Only the CE12800E switches equipped with FD-X series cards support this command.

   3. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.

   4. Run quit

      Exit from the traffic behavior view.

   5. Run quit

      Exit from the system view.

3. Configure a traffic policy.

   1. Run system-view

      The system view is displayed.

   2. Run traffic policy policy-name

      A traffic policy is created and the traffic policy view is displayed, or the view of an existing traffic policy is displayed.

   3. Run classifier classifier-name behavior behavior-name [ precedence precedence-value ]

      A traffic behavior is bound to a traffic classifier in the traffic policy.

   4. Run commit

      The configuration is committed.

   5. Run quit

      Exit from the traffic policy view.

   6. Run quit

      Exit from the system view.

4. Apply the traffic policy.

   • The traffic policy containing remark local-precedence cannot be used in the outbound direction.

   • For details about the configuration guidelines of applying traffic policies in different views on the CE12800, see Licensing Requirements and Limitations for MQC (CE12800).

   • For details about the configuration guidelines of applying traffic policies in different views on the CE12800E, see Licensing Requirements and Limitations for MQC (CE12800E).

   • For the CE12800 and the CE12800E equipped with FD-X series cards, run the display traffic-policy pre-state { global [ slot slot-id ] | interface { interface-type interface-number } | vlan vlan-id | bridge-domain bd-id } policy-name { inbound | outbound } command before committing the configuration to check the information about resources occupied by the traffic policy to be applied and determine whether the traffic policy can be successfully applied based on the information.

   • If a traffic policy needs to be applied to multiple VLANs and interfaces or multiple traffic classifiers for matching packets from different source IP addresses need to be bound to the same traffic policy, you are advised to add these VLANs, source IP addresses, and interfaces to the same QoS group and apply the traffic policy to the QoS group.

        • (For CE12800E) Run the group-member ip source ip-address { mask | mask-length } command to add source IP addresses to the QoS group.

     4. Run traffic-policy policy-name { inbound | outbound }

        A traffic policy is applied to the QoS group.

Verifying the Configuration

• Run the display traffic classifier [ classifier-name ] command to check the traffic classifier configuration.
• Run the display traffic behavior [ behavior-name ] command to check the traffic behavior configuration on the device.

• Run the display traffic policy [ policy-name [ classifier classifier-name ] ] command to check the traffic policy configuration.

• Run the display traffic-policy applied-record [ policy-name ] [ global [ slot slot-id ] | interface interface-type interface-number | vlan vlan-id | vsi vsi-name | vpn-instance vpn-instance-name | qos group group-id | bridge-domain bd-id ] [ inbound | outbound ] command to check the application records of a specified traffic policy.

  The CE12800E does not support the vsi vsi-name parameter.

• Run the display system tcam fail-record [ slot slot-id ] command to display TCAM delivery failures.
• Run the display system tcam service brief [ slot slot-id ] command to display the group index and rule count occupied by different services.
• Run the display system tcam service { cpcar slot slot-id | service-name slot slot-id [ chip chip-id ] } command to display IDs of entries delivered by services on the specified chip or in the specified slot.
• Run one of the following commands to display data of a traffic policy that has been applied:
  • display system tcam service traffic-policy { global | vlan vlan-id | interface interface-type interface-number | vsi vsi-name | vpn-instance vpn-instance-name | qos group group-id | bridge-domain bd-id } policy-name { inbound | outbound } [ slot slot-id [ chip chip-id ] ]
