SRX

Have an SRX240H that we are trying to enable MF classification and send to a forwarding class but do not see actions that allow this. Maybe am missing something obvious - all docs indicate our SW versions should support this.

admin# edit family inet filter classify term media then ?

Nothing for accept or forwarding-class

Try using set instead of edit. Works for me on 11.2R5.

BenR is correct.

'edit' is like 'cd' down into the configuration hierarchy.  You can only 'edit' all the way down to a section that has further sub-options, just like you can only 'cd' down into directories, but can't 'cd' into a file itself
