Configuring QoS QoS Policy Overview
OmniSwitch AOS Release 8 Network Configuration Guide December 2017 page 26-31
Policy Actions
The following actions are supported and can be combined with other actions.
The CLI prevents you from configuring invalid action combinations that are never allowed; however, it
does allow you to create combinations that are supported in some scenarios. For example, an action
specifying maximum bandwidth can be combined with an action specifying priority.
Use the following “Policy Action Combinations Table” together with the “Supported Policy Actions
Table” as a guide when creating policy actions.
