Defining Code Point Aliases for Bit Patterns
To define a code-point alias, include the code-point-aliases statement at the [edit class-of-service] hierarchy level:
[edit class-of-service]code-point-aliases {(dscp | dscp-ipv6 | exp | ieee-802.1 | inet-precedence)
{alias-name bit-pattern;}}
The CoS marker types are as follows:
- dscp—Handles incoming IPv4 packets.
- dscp-ipv6—Handles incoming IPv6 packets. For more information, see Applying DSCP IPv6 Classifiers.
- exp—Handles MPLS packets using Layer 2 headers.
- ieee-802.1—Handles Layer 2 CoS.
- inet-precedence—Handles incoming IPv4 packets. IP precedence mapping requires only the upper three bits of the DSCP field.
For example, you might configure the following aliases:
[edit class-of-service]code-point-aliases {dscp {my1 110001;my2 101110;be 000001;cs7 110000;}}
This configuration produces the following mapping:
user@host> show class-of-service code-point-aliases

af22 010100
af23 010110
af31 011010
af32 011100
af33 011110
af41 100010
af42 100100
af43 100110
be 000001
cs1 001000
cs2 010000
cs3 011000
cs4 100000
cs5 101000
nc1/cs6/cs7 110000
nc2 111000
my1 110001
The following notes explain certain results in the mapping:
- my1 110001:
- 110001 was not mapped to anything before, and my1 is a new alias.
- Nothing in the default mapping table is changed by this statement.
- my2 101110:
- 101110 is now mapped to my2 as well as ef.
- be 000001:
- be is now mapped to 000001.
- The old value of be, 000000, is not associated with any alias. Packets with this DSCP value are now mapped to the default forwarding class.
- cs7 110000:
- cs7 is now mapped to 110000, as well as nc1 and cs6.
- The old value of cs7, 111000, is still mapped to nc2.
