Classifiers examine the CoS value or alias of an incoming packet and assign it a level of service by setting its forwarding class and loss priority. For more information about classifiers, see the .
To define classifiers using the J-Web configuration editor:
The Classifier Configuration summary page appears.

Add |
Opens a page that allows you to define classifiers. |
To add a classifier, click Add. |
Edit |
Opens a page that allows you to edit a selected classifier. |
To edit a classifier, select a classifier in the summary page and click Edit. |
Delete |
Deletes a specified classifier. |
To delete a classifier, select the classifier and click Delete. |
Add Classifier | ||
Classifier name |
Specifies the name for a classifier. |
To name a classifier, type the name—for example, ba-classifier. |
Classifier type |
Specifies a classifier type. |
Select a classifier type from the drop-down list—for example, dscp, ieee-802.1, or inet-precedence. |
Add |
Opens a page that allows you to assign a forwarding class and loss priority to the specified CoS value and alias. A classifier examines the incoming packet's header for the specified CoS value and alias and assigns it the forwarding class and loss priority that you have defined. |
To assign a code point, forwarding class, and loss priority to a specific CoS classifier, click Add. |
Add Code Point Mapping/Edit Code Point Mapping | ||
Code point |
Specifies the CoS value in bits and the alias of a classifier. |
To specify a CoS value and alias, either select preconfigured ones from the list or type new ones. |
Forwarding class |
Assigns the forwarding class to the specified CoS value and alias. |
To assign a forwarding class, select either one of the following default forwarding classes or one that you have configured:
|
Loss priority |
Assigns a loss priority to the specified CoS value and alias. |
To assign a loss priority, select one:
