action Statement (IPQoS Administration Guide)

IPQoS Administration Guide

action Statement

You use action statements to invoke the various IPQoS modules that are described in IPQoS Architecture and the diffserv Model.

When you begin the IPQoS configuration file, you must always begin with the version number. Then, you must add the following action to invoke the classifier:

fmt_version 1.0

action {
    module ipgpc
    name ipgpc.classify
}

Follow the classifier action statement with a params clause or a class clause.

Use the following syntax for all other action statements:

action {
name action_name
module module_name
params_clause | ""
cf_clauses
}
