Huan Pham, your statement would be true if the class was not class-default.
"class-default" is a system class and cannot be deleted or put ahead of
other classes.
Also, it can never have a match statement - it will always match everything.
This is easy to test - it can not be even created:
Router(config)#class-map class-default
% class-default is a well-known class and is not configurable under
class-map
Therefore having classes under it would not have any point. So you have to
remember that "class-default" is an IMPLICIT class at the end, just like
deny statement at the end of every ACL, prefix list and AS-PATH ACL, deny
clause at the end of every in every route-map etc. But it does not deny all,
it MATCHES ALL.
P.S.: you can also create a class-map with "match any" statement that would
match anything and therefore class-default would not receive any packets.
But you still can never get rid of class-default.
Note: all above is true for MQC
