Allows you to edit a specific rule.

To edit a rule, click its name.

Forwarding Class

Displays forwarding classes associated with a specific rewrite rule.

None.

Loss Priority

Displays loss priority values associated with a specific rewrite rule,

None.

Rewrite Outgoing Code Point To

None.

Add

Opens a page that allows you to define a new rewrite rule.

To add a rewrite rule, click Add.

Delete

Removes specified rewrite rules.

To remove a rule, select the check box next to it and click Delete.

Rewrite Rule Name

Specifies a rewrite rule name.

To name a rule, type the name—for example, rewrite-dscps.

Code Point Mapping

Rewrites outgoing CoS values of a packet, based on the forwarding class and loss priority.

Allows you to remove a Code Point Mapping entry.

To configure the CoS value assignment, follow these steps:

1. From the Forwarding Class list, select a class.
2. Select a priority from the following:
   • low—Rewrite rule applies to packets with a low loss priority.
   • high—Rewrite rule applies to packets with a high loss priority.
   • medium-low—Rewrite rule applies to packets with a medium-low loss priority.
   • medium-high–Rewrite rule applies to packets with a medium-high loss priority.
3. For Rewritten Code Point, either select a predefined CoS value and alias or type a new CoS value and alias.

   For information about predefined CoS values and aliases, see Table 178.

4. Click Add.

To remove a code point mapping entry, select it and click Delete.
