Understanding Policy Groups
Policy groups are constrained sets of QoS policies, and assigned network
elements. A policy group consists of:
elements. A policy group consists of:
•
Device constraints—These are defined by device properties, such as device
model, operating system version, network element type, and so on. These
constraints determine the QoS features that can be defined in the policy
group, and the type of network elements on which the policies can be
configured. You can define multiple device constraints in a policy group, but
they must all be for the same network element type.

•
QoS properties—These include the policy group’s scheduling type, and other
properties and QoS mappings that are applied to all traffic on the network
elements to which they are deployed. The scheduling type can affect the QoS
properties that can be defined for the policy group, for example, CRTP, LFI,
trust state, and so on.
