+Applying a traffic policy
+=========================
+
+Once a traffic-policy is created, you can apply it to an interface:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set interfaces etherhet eth0 traffic-policy out WAN-OUT
+
+You can only apply one policy per interface and direction, but you could
+reuse a policy on different interfaces and directions:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set interfaces ethernet eth0 traffic-policy in WAN-IN
+ set interfaces etherhet eth0 traffic-policy out WAN-OUT
+ set interfaces etherhet eth1 traffic-policy in LAN-IN
+ set interfaces etherhet eth1 traffic-policy out LAN-OUT
+ set interfaces ethernet eth2 traffic-policy in LAN-IN
+ set interfaces ethernet eth2 traffic-policy out LAN-OUT
+ set interfaces etherhet eth3 traffic-policy in TWO-WAY-POLICY
