Information
The order option is relevant in the context of the Policy QoS feature only. See the “Quality of Service”
chapter of the FTOS Configuration Guide for more information.
When you use the log option, CP processor logs details about the packets that match. Depending on
how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the CP may become busy as it has to log these
packets’ details.
The C-Series and S-Series cannot count both packets and bytes, so when you enter the count byte
options, only bytes are incremented.
The monitor option is relevant in the context of flow-based monitoring only. See the Chapter 46, Port
Monitoring.
port port
(OPTIONAL) Enter the application layer port number. Enter two port numbers if using
the range logical operand.
Range: 0 to 65535
destination
Enter the IP address of the network or host to which the packets are sent.
mask
Enter a network mask in /prefix format (/x) or A.B.C.D. The mask, when specified in
A.B.C.D format, may be either contiguous or non-contiguous.
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 enter ACL matches in the log.
Supported on Jumbo-enabled line cards only.
order (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword order to specify the QoS priority for the ACL entry.
Range: 0-254 (where 0 is the highest priority and 254 is the lowest; lower order
numbers have a higher priority)
Default: If the order keyword is not used, the ACLs have the lowest order by default
(255).
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 FTOS Configuration Guide.
fragments Enter the keyword fragments to use ACLs to control packet fragments.
Version 8.3.1.0
Added dscp keyword.
Version 8.2.1.0 Allows ACL control of fragmented packets for IP (Layer 3) ACLs.
Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
Version 7.6.1.0 Added support for S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series
Version 7.4.1.0
Added support for non-contiguous mask and added the
monitor option.
Version 6.5.10
Expanded to include the optional QoS
order priority for the ACL entry.
Note: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may display
an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.
