Description: This object specifies the ingress meter policy.

The ingress meter policy has no effect when there is no meter profile

attached to this QoS flow..

- Non-Hierarchical: Denotes that frames which classify to the Meter

instantiated via an attached Meter Profile will be Metered according

to the bandwidth parameters of the attached Meter Profile.

The resultant colour of the frame will be determined by the

single meter instance of the logical interface. The frame is

processed by a single ingress meter. Resultant Red frames

are dropped.

- Hierarchical: Denotes that frames which classify to the Meter

instantiated via an attached Meter Profile will first be Metered

according to the bandwidth parameters of the attached Meter Profile,

then subsequently those frames will be Metered according to the

bandwidth parameters of the first parent logical interface (identifie d

by the object cienaCesDpQosFlowParentIfType) that has a

Meter Profile attached. If no parent logical interface

has an attached ingress meter profile, the behavior for frames

which classify to the logical interface is the same as the

Non-Hierarchical policy. The resultant colour of frames that

are metered by the attached meter profile are fed into the parent

meter. If the resultant color of a frame is Red after being

processed by a meter at any hierarchical level, the frame is

dropped and not fed into a parent meter.
