Usage Scenario
The service-template command is used to configure a user-defined service template corresponding to a specific network header length. If no slot ID is specified in this command, the command configures a global service profile. If a slot ID is specified, the configured service profile can be used on interfaces that can be managed on the board in the slot.
A maximum of 256 service profiles are supported, irrespective of whether a slot ID is specified or not.Configuration Impact
The forwarding engine processes packets based on packet types and forwarding types. For example, if the forwarding engine removes the MAC header from an IP packet, the length of the packet is different from the original one. As a result, if the forwarding engine performs queue scheduling or traffic shaping, traffic shaping is inaccurate.
To improve traffic shaping precise, run the network-header-length command to configure a network header length for packets.
