To add a reference to an existing qos class map in a policy map and enter the class mode, use the class command. To remove a class from the policy map, use the no form of this command.

class [type qos] class-map-name

no class class-map-name

Syntax Description

type qos	(Optional) Specifies the component type, which is qos for this class. By default, the type is qos.

Command Modes

Policy map type qos configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
4.1(3)N1(1)	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Policy actions in the first class that matches the traffic type are performed.

By default, the class-default class of type qos is created under every policy map of type qos in the system and it is mapped to the QoS group 0. You cannot change this mapping.

You cannot remove the class-default of type qos. If you attempt to delete the class-default class, the switch returns an error message.

Examples

This example shows how to add a reference to a qos class map at the end of a policy map:

switch(config)# policy-map my_policy1

switch(config-pmap-qos)# class traffic_class2

switch(config-pmap-c-qos)#
