Policy Commands
Overview
This chapter describes the commands that you use to configure policies on the W310.
The W310 provides two types of policies: Access Control List (ACL) and Quality of Service
(QoS).
For each IP packet, an ACL rule is matched. If the packet is allowed, a QoS rule is matched.
The ACL and QoS policy lists are searched according to the interface where the packet either
•
arrives or
•
is transmitted.
Policies are applied by classifying packets according to key fields in the packets.
The W310 policy scheme differentiates between
•
packets to the W310 (ingress policy) and
•
packets going out of the W310 (egress policy)
Ingress and Egress Policy
Ingress policy is enforced on packets coming from Light Access Point (LAP) ports while
egress policy is enforced on packets destined to LAP ports. Packets that arrive from an
Access Point (AP) port or destined to an AP port are classified according to the group that
the AP belongs to. The Access Point Group (APG) is an identifier that aggregates ports that
have the same policy behavior. The APG and the direction is the context in which the policy
operations take place. This will be referred to as PEP or AP Group (policy enforcement
point). Every PEP/AP Group shall have several lists attached to it, such as ACL, QoS and
several scalars that define its attributes.
