Variable Definitions

Use the data in the following table to create a QoS traffic profile filter classifier.

Variable Value
Type Specifies the classifier type. Values include:
  • NsnaClfr
  • TrafficProfile

Name Specifies the name of the classifier. All classifiers with the same name are part of the same filter set. That filter set has the same name as the classifiers.
Block Specifies the block name with which the classifier is associated.
EvalPrec Specifies the evaluation order number of the classifier in that filter set. Two classifiers in the same filter set cannot have the same evaluation order. A higher eval order means a lower precedence for the corresponding policy. Values range from 1–255.
AddrType Specifies the type of IP address used by this classifier entry. Values include:
  • N/A—the address type is non-applicable
  • ipv4
  • ipv6
DstIpAddr Specifies the IP address to match against the destination IP address of a packet. If you leave this box empty, the system ignores this parameter.
DstIpPrefixLength Specifies the length of the destination address mask. Values range from 0–2040, with 0–32 reserved for IPv4 address masks and 0–128 reserved for IPv6 address masks.
SrcIpAddr Specifies the IP address to match against the source IP address of a packet. If you leave this box empty, the system ignores this parameter.
SrcIpPrefixLength Specifies the length of the source address mask. Values range from 0–2040, with 0–32 reserved for IPv4 address masks and 0–128 reserved for IPv6 address masks.
Dscp Specifies the value for a DiffServ Codepoint (DSCP) in a packet. Values range from -1–63 (0x00 to 0x3f hexadecimal). A value of -1 indicates that the system ignores this parameter.
Protocol/NextHeader

Specifies the IPv4 protocol value, or the IPv6 next-header value. Values range from 0–255. A value of 255 indicates that the system ignores the parameter. The following are specific value designations:

  • 1 = ICMP-IPv4
  • 2 = IGMP
  • 6 = TCP
  • 17 = UDP
  • 20 = FTP Data
  • 21 = FTP Control
  • 23 = Telnet
  • 25 = SMTP
  • 46 = RSVP
  • 58 = ICMP-IPv6
  • L4Port:69 = TFTP
  • 80 = HTTP
  • 443 = HTTPS
DstL4PortMin Specifies the minimum value for the Layer 4 destination port number in a packet. Values range from 0–65535.
DstL4PortMax Specifies the maximum value for the Layer 4 destination port number in a packet. Values range from 0–65535.
SrcL4PortMin Specifies the minimum value for the Layer 4 source port number in a packet. Values range from 0–65535.
SrcL4PortMax Specifies the maximum value for the Layer 4 source port number in a packet. Values range from 0–65535.
Ipv6FlowId Specifies the flow identifier for IPv6 packets. Values range from -1–1048575 (0x00 to 0xfffff hexadecimal). A value of -1 indicates that the system ignores this parameter.
IpFlags Specifies the classifier flag to match in traffic IPv4 headers. Values include:
  • MoreFragement
  • doNotFragement
TcpCtrlFlags Specifies the control flag to match in traffic TCP headers. Values include:
  • Urg
  • Ack
  • Psh
  • Rst
  • Syn
  • Fin
Ipv4Options Specifies if the presence of IPv4 options in an IPv4 packet are considered when the system is searching for a match for this classifier. Values include:
  • present—only IPv4 packets with options match this classifier
  • notPresent—only IPv4 packets without options match this classifier
  • ignore—whether or not options are present in IPv4 packets is not considered when determining if the IPv4 packet matches this classifier
DstMacAddr Specifies the MAC address against which the MAC destination address of incoming packets is compared. If you leave this box empty, the system ignores this parameter.
DstMacAddrMask Specifies a mask identifying the destination MAC address. If you leave this box empty, the system ignores this parameter.
SrcMacAddr Specifies a MAC source address of incoming packets. If you leave this box empty, the system ignores this parameter.
SrcMacAddrMask Specifies a mask identifying the source MAC address. If you leave this box empty, the system ignores this parameter.
VlanIdMin Specifies the minimum value for the VLAN ID in a packet. Values range from 1–4094.
VlanIdMax Specifies the maximum value for the VLAN ID in a packet. Values range from 1–4094. If you set VlanIdMin to 1 and VlanIdMax to 4094, the system ignores the VLAN ID parameter.
VlanTag

Specifies the type of VLAN tagging in a packet. Values include::

  • untagged
  • tagged
  • ignore
EtherType Specifies the value for the Ethernet type. Values range from 0x00 to 0xffff. If you enter a value of 0xffff, the system ignores this parameter.
UserPriority Specifies the value for the 802.1p user priority. Values include:
  • matchPriority0
  • matchPriority1
  • matchPriority2
  • matchPriority3
  • matchPriority4
  • matchPriority5
  • matchPriority6
  • matchPriority7
  • matchAllPriorities
PktType Specifies the data link layer frame format for that can match this classifier. Values include:
  • ethernetII—only Ethernet II format frames can match this classifier
  • snap—only IEEE 802 SNAP format frames can match this classifier
  • llc—only IEEE 802 LLC format frames can match this classifier
  • ignore—frame format is not considered in determining whether or not a frame matches this classifier
ActionDrop Specifies whether or not to drop the traffic matching filtering data. Values include:
  • drop
  • pass
UpdateDscp Specifies a value used to update the DSCP field in an IPv4 packet. Values range from -1–63 (0x00 to 0x3f hexadecimal). A value of -1 indicates that the system ignores this parameter.
UpdateUserPriority Specifies 802.1p value used to update user priority. Values include:
  • markAsPriority0
  • markAsPriority1
  • markAsPriority2
  • markAsPriority3
  • markAsPriority4
  • markAsPriority5
  • markAsPriority6
  • markAsPriority7
  • ignore
ActionSetPrec Specifies automatic drop precedence. Values include:
  • lowDropPrec—low drop precedence
  • highDropPrec—high drop precedence
When network traffic congestion occurs, packets with a high drop precedence are dropped before packets with a low drop precedence.
