The default DSCP-to-DSCP-mutation map is a null map, which maps an incoming DSCP value to the
same DSCP value.
The default policed-DSCP map is a null map, which maps an incoming DSCP value to the same DSCP
value (no markdown).

It is not possible to match IP fragments against configured IP extended ACLs to enforce QoS. IP
fragments are sent as best-effort. IP fragments are denoted by fields in the IP header.
Only one ACL per class map and only one match class-map configuration command per class map
are supported. The ACL can have multiple ACEs, which match fields against the contents of the
packet.
A trust statement in a policy map requires multiple hardware entries per ACL line. If an input service
policy map contains a trust statement in an ACL, the access list might be too large to fit into the
available QoS hardware memory, and an error can occur when you apply the policy map to a port.
Whenever possible, you should minimize the number of lines is a QoS ACL.

You can configure QoS on physical ports and SVIs. When configuring QoS on physical ports, you
create and apply nonhierarchical policy maps. When configuring QoS on SVIs, you can create and
apply nonhierarchical and hierarchical policy maps.
