Information
When you use the log option, the 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.

Commands
Extended MAC ACL Commands
When an access-list is created without any rule and then applied to an interface, ACL
behavior reflects implicit permit.
any
Enter the keyword any to filter all packets.
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, 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, refer to the section
“Flow-based Monitoring” in the Port Monitoring chapter of
the FTOS Configuration Guide.
