QoS options for IP ACLs
13
The first entry in this IP ACL denies TCP traffic from the 209.157.21.x network to the 209.157.22.x
network, if the traffic has the IP ToS option “normal” (equivalent to “0”).
The second entry denies all FTP traffic from the 209.157.21.x network to the 209.157.22.x
network, if the traffic has the IP ToS value “13” (equivalent to “max-throughput”, “min-delay”, and
“min-monetary-cost”).
The third entry permits all packets that are not explicitly denied by the other entries. Without this
entry, the ACL would deny all incoming or outgoing IP traffic on the ports to which you assign the
ACL.
QoS options for IP ACLs
Quality of Service (QoS) options enable you to perform QoS for packets that match the ACLs. Using
an ACL to perform QoS is an alternative to directly setting the internal forwarding priority based on
incoming port, VLAN membership, and so on. (This method is described in Assigning QoS
priorities to traffic” on page 408.)
The following QoS ACL options are supported:
dscp-marking – Marks the DSCP value in the outgoing packet with the value you specify.
802.1p-and internal-marking – Supported on PowerConnect devices only wiith the DSCP
marking option, this command assigns traffic that matches the ACL to a hardware forwarding
queue and re-marks the packets that match the ACL with the 802.1p priority.
dscp-matching – Matches on the packet DSCP value. This option does not change the packet
forwarding priority through the device or mark the packet.
Using an IP ACL to mark DSCP values (DSCP marking)
The dscp-marking option for extended ACLs allows you to configure an ACL that marks matching
packets with a specified DSCP value. You also can use DSCP marking to assign traffic to a specific
hardware forwarding queue (refer to “Using an ACL to change the forwarding queue for
PowerConnect B-Series TI24X devices” on page 388).
For example, the following commands configure an ACL that marks all IP packets with DSCP value
5. The ACL is then applied to incoming packets on interface 7. Consequently, all inbound packets
on interface 7 are marked with the specified DSCP value.
PowerConnect(config)# access-list 120 permit ip any any dscp-marking 5
dscp-cos-mapping
PowerConnect(config)# interface 7
PowerConnect(config-if-e10000-7)# ip access-group 120 in
Syntax: ...dscp-marking <dscp-value>
The dscp-marking <dscp-value> parameter maps a DSCP value to an internal forwarding priority.
The DSCP value can be from 0 – 63.
