Usage Guidelines for the policy-map Command

You can configure class policies in a policy map only if the classes have match criteria defined for them
in a class map using the class-map and match commands.
You can attach a single policy map to multiple interfaces concurrently. After attaching the policy to
multiple interfaces, if you modify the policy such that it is no longer usable to the interfaces (for
example, the available bandwidth on the interface cannot accommodate the total bandwidth requested by
the class policies), the router removes the multiple attachments from the interfaces.
Types of QoS Actions
The following sections describe the QoS actions supported on the Cisco 10000 series router. These are
the actions that you configure in a policy map for specific traffic classes.

Input and Output Policy Actions

The Cisco 10000 series router does not impose any restrictions on the classification definitions you
include in a class map. However, it does limit the input and output policy actions that you can define in
a policy map. These limitations are based on the type of interface on which you apply the service policy.
