Bind the Policy Map to an Interface

Consider the following rules when binding a policy map to an interface:

You can bind the same policy map to multiple interfaces but only one policy per interface per direction is allowed.
You cannot bind policy maps to an interface if the policy map has no class map associations.

Enter global configuration mode.
```
device# configure terminal
```

Enter interface configuration mode.

device(config)# interface ethernet 1/40

Bind a policy map to egress traffic on the interface.

device(config-if-eth-1/40)# service-policy out policyMap1

Bind a policy map to ingress traffic on the interface.

device(config-if-eth-1/40)# service-policy in policyMap1

Return to privileged EXEC mode.
```
device(config-if-eth-1/40)# end
```

Verify the configuration.

device# show policy-map interface ethernet 1/40

Ingress Direction :
 Policy-Map policyMap1
    Class class_1
      matches 0 packets
      Police cir 40000 cbs 5000 eir 40000 ebs 3000 conform-tc 6 exceed-tc 2 conform-dscp 61 exceed-dscp 63
        Stats:
          Operational cir:39856 cbs:5000 eir:39856 ebs:3000
          Conform Byte:0 Exceed Byte:0 Violate Byte:0

Egress Direction :
 Policy-Map policyMap1
    Class class_1
      matches 0 packets
      Police cir 40000 cbs 5000 eir 40000 ebs 3000 conform-tc 6 exceed-tc 2 conform-dscp 61 exceed-dscp 63 
        Stats:
          Operational cir:39856 cbs:5000 eir:39856 ebs:3000
          Conform Byte:0 Exceed Byte:0 Violate Byte:0

Note

Egress policer is not supported on SLX 9150/Extreme 8520 devices. The police command affects only the CIR.

Save the running-config file to the startup-config file.
```
device# copy running-config startup-config
```

This example summarizes the commands in this procedure.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/40
device(conf-if-eth-1/40)# service-policy out policyMap1 
device(conf-if-eth-1/40)# service-policy in policyMap1 
device(conf-if-eth-1/40)# end
device# show policy-map interface ethernet 1/40
device# copy running-config startup-config
