Configuring Global Parameters with the SRC CLI

If you change global variables for policies, the change takes effect the next time a service is activated; the change does not take effect for active service sessions.

Use the following configuration statement to create a global parameter:

policies global-parameters parameter name {
description description;

default-value default-value;

type type;
}

To create a global parameter:

  1. From configuration mode, enter the global parameter configuration. For example, to create a parameter called bandwidth:
  2. user@host# edit policies global-parameters parameter bandwidth
    
    
    
  3. (Optional) Enter a description for the parameter. You can provide extra information and examples of how the parameter is used.
  4. [edit policies global-parameters parameter bandwidth]
    
    user@host# set description description
    
    
    
  5. (Optional) Configure a default value that the policy engine uses if no other values are provided during the parameter value acquisition process.

See Table 23 for valid values of each parameter type.

[edit policies global-parameters parameter bandwidth]
user@host# set default-value default-value

  1. (Optional) Type of attribute for which you can use the parameter.
  2. [edit policies global-parameters parameter bandwidth]
    
    user@host# set type type
    
    
    
  3. (Optional) Verify your configuration.
  4. [edit policies global-parameters parameter bandwidth]
    
    user@host# show
    
    default-value 5000000;
    
    type rate;
