to 16 characters long.

7.5.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series.
6.1.1.0 Introduced on the E-Series.
Usage Information
The system supports one ingress and one egress MAC ACL per interface.
The number of entries allowed per ACL is hardware-dependent. For detailed information on the number entries
allowed per ACL on the C9000, refer to the Content Addressable Memory (CAM) chapter in the C9000
Configuration Guide.
Use this command in Configuration Terminal Batch mode to configure a standard MAC ACL, name in a dual-
homing setup.
Example
Dell(conf)#mac-access-list access-list standard TestMAC
Dell(config-std-macl)#?
deny Specify packets to reject
description List description
exit Exit from access-list configuration mode
no Negate a command or set its defaults
permit Specify packets to forward
remark Specify access-list entry remark
seq Sequence numbers
show Show Standard ACL configuration
permit
To forward packets from a specific source MAC address, configure a filter.
C9000 Series
Syntax
permit {any | mac-source-address [mac-source-address-mask]} [count [byte]] |
[log [interval minutes] [threshold-in-msgs [count]] [monitor]
To remove this filter, you have two choices:
• Use the no seq sequence-number command if you know the filter’s sequence number.
• Use the no permit {any | mac-source-address mac-source-address-mask} command.
Parameters
any Enter the keyword any to forward all packets received with a MAC address.
mac-source-
address
Enter a MAC address in nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn format.
mac-source-
address-mask
(OPTIONAL) Specify which bits in the MAC address must match. If no mask is specified,
a mask of 00:00:00:00:00:00 is applied (in other words, the filter allows only MAC
addresses that match).
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) Enter the keyword log to include ACL messages in the log.
threshold-in msgs
count
(OPTIONAL) Enter the threshold-in-msgs keyword followed by a value to indicate
the maximum number of ACL logs that can be generated, exceeding which the generation
of ACL logs is terminated with the seq, permit, or deny commands. The threshold
range is from 1 to 100.
interval minutes (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword interval followed by the time period in minutes at
which ACL logs must be generated. The threshold range is from 1 to 10 minutes.
