• All DSCP values that are not specied as yellow or red are colored green (low drop precedence).
• A DSCP value cannot be in both the yellow and red lists. Setting the red or yellow list with any DSCP value that is already in the other
list results in an error and no update to that DSCP list is made.
• Each color map can only have one list of DSCP values for each color; any DSCP values previously listed for that color that are not in the
new DSCP list are colored green.
• If you congured a DSCP color map on an interface that does not exist or you delete a DSCP color map that is congured on an
interface, that interface uses an all green color policy.
To create a DSCP color map:
1 Create the color-aware map QoS DSCP color map.
CONFIGURATION mode
qos dscp-color-map color-map-name
2 Create the color aware map prole.
DSCP-COLOR-MAP
dscp {yellow | red} {list-dscp-values}
3 Apply the map prole to the interface.
CONFIG-INTERFACE mode
qos dscp-color-policy color-map-name
Example: Create a DSCP Color Map
The following example creates a DSCP color map prole, color-awareness policy, and applies it to interface te 0/11.
Create the DSCP color map prole, bat-enclave-map, with a yellow drop precedence , and set the DSCP values to
9,10,11,13,15,16
Dell(conf)# qos dscp-color-map bat-enclave-map
Dell(conf-dscp-color-map)# dscp yellow 9,10,11,13,15,16
Dell (conf-dscp-color-map)# exit
Assign the color map, bat-enclave-map to interface te 0/11.
Dell(conf)# int te 0/11
Dell(conf-if-te-0/11)# qos dscp-color-policy bat-enclave-map
