Configuring Global Parameters (SRC CLI)

If you change global variables for policies, the change takes effect the next time a service is activated; the change does not take effect for active service sessions.

Use the following configuration statement to create a global parameter:

policies global-parameters name {description description ; default-value default-value ; type type ; }

To create a global parameter:

From configuration mode, enter the global parameter configuration. For example, to create a parameter called bandwidth:
user@host# edit policies global-parameters bandwidth
(Optional) Enter a description for the parameter. You can provide extra information and examples of how the parameter is used.
[edit policies global-parameters bandwidth]user@host# set description description
(Optional) Configure a default value that the policy engine uses if no other values are provided during the parameter value acquisition process.
See Parameter Types for valid values of each parameter type.
[edit policies global-parameters bandwidth]user@host# set default-value default-value
(Optional) Type of attribute for which you can use the parameter.
[edit policies global-parameters bandwidth]user@host# set type type

(Optional) Verify your configuration.

[edit policies global-parameters bandwidth]
user@host# show 
default-value 5000000;
type rate;
