Description
The
acl
apply
interface
command applies a previously defined ACL to an
interface. When you apply an ACL to an interface, you implicitly enable access control
on that interface. You can apply an ACL to filter out inbound traffic, outbound traffic,
or both inbound and outbound traffic. Inbound traffic is packets coming into the
interface while outbound traffic is packets going out of that interface.
When you apply an ACL, you also can enable ACL Logging by using the
logging
keyword. When you enable ACL Logging on an interface, the SSR displays ACL
Logging messages on the console. The ACL log provides information such as the
interface name, the ACL name, whether the packet is forwarded or not, and the internal
details of the packet.
Parameters
<name>
Name of the ACL. The ACL must already be defined. To de-
fine an ACL, use one of the commands described in the pre-
vious sections in this chapter.
<InterfaceName>
Name of the interface to which you are applying the ACL.

specify one of the following keywords:
