seq
Configure a filter with a specific sequence number.
Syntax
seq sequence-number {deny | permit} {any | host mac-address | mac-source-
address mac-source-address-mask} {any | host mac-address | mac-destination-
address mac-destination-address-mask} [ethertype operator] [count [byte]]
[log] [monitor]
To delete a filter, use the no seq sequence-number command.
Parameters
sequence-
number
Enter a number as the filter sequence number. The range is from zero (0) to
65535.
deny Enter the keyword deny to drop any traffic matching this filter.
permit Enter the keyword permit to forward any traffic matching this filter.
any Enter the keyword any to filter all packets.
host
mac-
address
Enter the keyword host and then enter a MAC address to filter packets with that
host address.
mac-source-
address
Enter a MAC address in nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn format.
The MAC ACL supports an inverse mask; therefore, a mask of ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff allows
entries that do not match and a mask of 00:00:00:00:00:00 only allows entries that
match exactly.
mac-source-
address-mask
Specify which bits in the MAC address must be matched.
mac-destination-
address
Enter the destination MAC address and mask in nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn format.
mac-destination-
address-mask
Specify which bits in the MAC address must be matched.
The MAC ACL supports an inverse mask; therefore, a mask of ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff allows
entries that do not match and a mask of 00:00:00:00:00:00 only allows entries that
match exactly.
ethertype
operator
(OPTIONAL) To filter based on protocol type, enter one of the following
Ethertypes:
ev2 - is the Ethernet II frame format.
llc - is the IEEE 802.3 frame format.
snap - is the IEEE 802.3 SNAP frame format.
count (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword count to count packets the filter processes.
byte (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword byte to count bytes the filter processes.
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 is applied
to the monitored interface.

the Port Monitoring chapter of the Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide.
