Configuring QoS Using Map Groups
OmniSwitch AOS Release 8 Network Configuration Guide December 2017 page 26-60
Using Map Groups
Map groups are used to map 802.1p, ToS, or DSCP values to different values. The following mapping
scenarios are supported:
• 802.1p to 802.1p, based on Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 parameters and source/destination slot/port.
In addition, 802.1p classification can trigger this action.
• ToS or DSCP to 802.1p, based on Layer 3 and Layer 4 parameters and source/destination slot/port. In
addition ToS or DSCP classification can trigger this action.
Commands used for creating map groups include the following:
policy map group
policy action map
Sample Map Group Configuration
1 Create the map group with mapping values. For detailed information about map groups and how to set
them up, see “How Map Groups Work” on page 26-61 and “Creating Map Groups” on page 26-61.
-> policy map group tosGroup 1-2:5 4:5 5-6:7
2 Attach the map group to a policy action. See “Creating Policy Actions” on page 26-45 for more
information about creating policy actions.
-> policy action tosMap map tos to 802.1p using tosGroup
3 Attach the action to a policy rule. In this example, the condition Traffic is already configured. For
more information about configuring rules, see “Creating Policy Rules” on page 26-46.
-> policy rule r3 condition Traffic action tosMap
4 Apply the configuration. For more information about this command, see “Applying the Configuration”
on page 26-71.
-> qos apply
Note. Map groups are associated with a policy action.
Note. (Optional) Use the show policy map group command to verify the map group.
-> show policy map group
