Concept Guide
To restrict egress trac, use an egress ACL. For example, when a direct operating system (DOS) attack trac is isolated to a specic
interface, you can apply an egress ACL to block the ow from the exiting the box, thus protecting downstream devices.
To create an egress ACL, use the ip access-group command in EXEC Privilege mode. The example shows viewing the conguration,
applying rules to the newly created access group, and viewing the access list.
Example of Applying ACL Rules to Egress Trac and Viewing ACL Conguration
To specify ingress, use the out keyword. Begin applying rules to the ACL with the ip access-list extended abcd command. To
view the access-list, use the
show command.

Applying Egress Layer 3 ACLs (Control-Plane)
By default, packets originated from the system are not ltered by egress ACLs.
For example, if you initiate a ping session from the system and apply an egress ACL to block this type of trac on the interface, the ACL
does not aect that ping trac. The Control Plane Egress Layer 3 ACL feature enhances IP reachability debugging by implementing
control-plane ACLs for CPU-generated and CPU-forwarded trac. Using permit rules with the count option, you can track on a per-ow
basis whether CPU-generated and CPU-forwarded packets were transmitted successfully.
1 Apply Egress ACLs to IPv4 system trac.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip control-plane [egress filter]
2 Create a Layer 3 ACL using permit rules with the count option to describe the desired CPU trac.
CONFIG-NACL mode
permit ip {source mask | any | host ip-address} {destination mask | any | host ip-address}
count
Dell Networking OS Behavior: Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) hellos and internet group management protocol (IGMP) packets
are not aected when you enable egress ACL ltering for CPU trac. Packets sent by the CPU with the source address as the VRRP
virtual IP address have the interface MAC address instead of VRRP virtual MAC address.
IP Prex Lists
IP prex lists control routing policy.
An IP prex list is a series of sequential lters that contain a matching criterion (examine IP route prex) and an action (permit or deny) to
process routes. The lters are processed in sequence so that if a route prex does not match the criterion in the rst lter, the second lter
