permit
c e s
Configure a filter to pass packets matching the criteria specified.
Syntax
permit {any | host mac-address | mac-source-address mac-source-address-mask} {any |
host mac-address | mac-destination-address mac-destination-address-mask} [ethertype
operator] [count [byte]] | [log] [monitor]
To remove this filter, you have two choices:
• Use the no seq sequence-number command syntax if you know the filter’s sequence number or
• Use the no permit {any | host mac-address | mac-source-address
mac-source-address-mask} {any | mac-destination-address
mac-destination-address-mask} command.
Parameters
Defaults
Not configured.
Command Modes
CONFIGURATION-MAC ACCESS LIST-EXTENDED
any
Enter the keyword any to forward all packets.
host Enter the keyword host followed by a MAC address to
forward packets with that host address.
mac-source-address
Enter the source MAC address in nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn format.
mac-source-address-mask
Specify which bits in the MAC address must be matched.
The MAC ACL supports an inverse mask, therefore, a mask of
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff allows entries that do not match and a mask of
00:00:00:00:00:00 only allows entries that match exactly.
mac-destination-address
Enter the destination MAC address and mask in
nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn format.
mac-destination-address-mask
Specify which bits in the MAC address must be matched.
The MAC ACL supports an inverse mask, therefore, a mask of
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff allows entries that do not match and a mask of
00:00:00:00:00:00 only allows entries that match exactly.
ethertype operator
(OPTIONAL) To filter based on protocol type, enter one of the
following Ethertypes:
•
ev2 - is the Ethernet II frame format.
•
llc - is the IEEE 802.3 frame format.
•
snap - is the IEEE 802.3 SNAP frame format.
count (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword count to count packets
processed by the filter.
byte (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword byte to count bytes
processed by the filter.
log (OPTIONAL, E-Series only) Enter the keyword log to log the
packets.
monitor (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword monitor when the rule is
describing the traffic that you want to monitor and the ACL in
which you are creating the rule will be applied to the monitored
interface. For details, see the section “Flow-based Monitoring”
in the Port Monitoring chapter of the Dell Networking OS
Configuration Guide.
