Note: With Power MICE and MACH 4000, you can use either MAC-based or
IP-based ACLs for each interface. With MACH 4002-24G/48G, you can use
both MAC-based and IP-based ACLs for each interface.
6.6.1 Description of prioritizing with ACLs
Prioritizing with ACLs provides you with an extension of the prioritizing func-
tion. Using the "assign queue" ACL action, you can perform extended priori-
tizing using protocols, source and destination addresses, VLAN ID, and so
on (see on page 19 "Description of IP-based ACLs.")(see on page 20 "De-
scription of MAC-based ACLs").
If an ACL rule containing an assign queue action applies to a packet re-
ceived, the Switch modifies the priority information in the data packet (see on
page 137 "QoS/Priority") in accordance with the specified assign queue pa-
rameter (see table 4). This procedure is known as ACL remarking. The
Switch sends the data packets with the modified priority information.
