Example 224 Applying a QoS policy to a port range and a VLAN interface

The following example shows how to apply a QoS policy to a port range and a VLAN interface:

HP Switch(config)#: interface a4 service-policy RateLimitPrioritizeSuspectTraffic in

HP Switch(config)#: vlan 10 service-policy RateLimitPrioritizeSuspectTraffic in

Checking resource usage

Syntax:

show policy resources

After applying service policies to an interface, use the show policy resources

command to verify the amount of additional resources used and the amount of

resources that are still available on the switch. Classifier-based service policies (such

as QoS or mirroring) share the same hardware resources with other software

features, such as ACLs, virus throttling, management VLAN, globally configured

QoS policies, MAC-based mirroring policies, and so on.

Use the displayed information to decide whether to re-prioritize current resource

usage by reconfiguring or disabling software features to free the resources reserved

for less important features. For a detailed explanation of the information displayed

with the show policy resources command, see the Management and

Configuration Guide.

Example 225 Viewing policy resources

The show policy resources command output displays the number of hardware resources

(rules, meters, and application port ranges) used by classifier-based QoS and mirroring policies

that are currently applied to interfaces on the switch, as well as other software features.

Viewing statistics for a policy

Only the active redirects (matches, ignores, etc.) are displayed when executing the show

statistics command.
