822 CHAPTER 59: FLOW TEMPLATE CONFIGURATION
c
CAUTION: When one of the following situations occurs, you cannot configure
user-defined flow templates on interfaces:
B-type and C-type modules have IPv6 unicast and mix-insertion enabled on the
virtual interfaces of VLANs.
A Loopback interface for tunneling is configured on the ports of D-type
modules.
B-type and C-type modules have MLD, MLD Snooping and IPv6 PIM enabled on
the virtual interfaces of VLANs.
B-type, C-type and D-type modules have the RSVP protocol enabled on the
virtual interfaces of VLANs.
B-type, C-type and D-type modules are configured with VPLS redirection to the
VPLS service modules.
Once a user-defined flow template is configured on an interface, only after the
corresponding functions are removed can the user-defined flow template be
deleted.
n
By default, the default flow template is referenced on interfaces.
On an interface you can reference only one flow template and this flow
template must be one already created.
The default flow template includes such fields as sip, dip, ip-protocol, sport,
dport, tcp-flag, icmp-type, icmp-code, service-vlan-id, and ethernet-protocol.
For modules suffixed with D, the default flow template also includes sipv6,
dipv6, ipv6-protocol, and ipv6-fragment fields.
Referencing a user-defined flow template on an interface may cause VLAN
ACLs not function at the inbound direction of the interface.
Configuring user-defined flow templates is prohibited on the even numbered
interface of the 3C17526 module. However, user-defined flow templates
configured on the odd numbered ports will function at the outbound direction
of all ports.
User-defined flow templates are not available for the POS interface.
The total size of all fields (in bytes) in a flow template should be less than 16 bytes.
Table 34 shows the size of every field.
Apply the flow template to the
interface or port group

The default one applies
