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 44, Port
Monitoring.

Commands
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.
dscp (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword dcsp to match to the IP DSCP values.
order (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword order to specify the QoS order of 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 Add DSCP value for ACL matching.
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 Support added for S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Support added 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.

permit tcp Assign a permit filter for TCP packets.
permit udp Assign a permit filter for UDP packets.
