Traffic Behavior

A traffic behavior contains actions of traffic policing, re-marking, flow mirroring, redirection, and traffic statistics. You can configure the traffic behavior as required.

Context

Procedure

• Create a traffic behavior.
  1. Choose QoS > Traffic Management > Traffic Behavior in the navigation tree to open the Traffic Behavior page.
  2. Click New to open the Create Traffic Behavior page.

     Table 1 describes the parameters on the Create Traffic Behavior page.

     Table 1 Create Traffic Behavior

     Parameter			Description
     Behavior Name			Indicates the name of a traffic behavior. This parameter is mandatory.
     Action			Indicates the traffic action used to control packets. The action can be deny or permit. By default, the action is permit.
     Traffic Statistics			Indicates whether to enable the traffic statistics. The value can be Enable or Disable. By default, the value is Disable.
     Configure Traffic Policing	CIR		Indicates the CIR, which is the allowed rate at which traffic can pass through.
     	PIR		Indicates the PIR, which is the peak rate at which traffic can pass through. NOTE: The value of PIR cannot be smaller than the value of CIR. By default, the value of PIR is equal to the value of the CIR. The S2700EI switches do not support this parameter.
     	CBS		Indicates the CBS, which is the maximum size of burst traffic that can pass through. NOTE: On the S2700EI switches, the value ranges from 8192 to 4294967295.

     	DSCP Priority		Indicates the DSCP priority.
     	Destination MAC		Indicates the destination MAC address. The value is in the format H-H-H. Each H represents four hexadecimal digits. NOTE: The S2700EI switches do not support this parameter.
     	VLAN ID		Indicates the VLAN ID.
     	Inner VLAN		Indicates the inner VLAN ID. NOTE: The S2700EI,S2710SI-52P,S3700SI or S2700EI-52P switches do not support this parameter.
     Configure Flow Mirroring	Observing Port Index		Indicates the ID of the observing interface where all matching flows are mirrored.
     	Observing Port		Indicates the observing interface where all matching flows are mirrored, for example, Ethernet0/0/1.
     Configure Redirection Action NOTE: The S2700EI or S2710SI-52P switches do not support this parameter.	Redirect to Interface		Indicates the interface where packets are redirected, for example, Ethernet0/0/1.
     	Redirect to Next Hop IP		Indicates the next hop address where packets are redirected, for example, 10.10.10.1. NOTE: You cannot configure both the next hop address where packets are redirected and the re-marked destination MAC address.

  3. Set parameters.

  4. Click OK.
• Modify a traffic behavior.
  1. Choose QoS > Traffic Management > Traffic Behavior in the navigation tree to open the Traffic Behavior page.
