Version Description
8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
The ACL hit counters in this command increment the counters for each matching rule, not just the first
matching rule.
Example
Dell#show mac accounting access-list TestMac interface
tengigabitethernet 0/1 in
Ingress Standard mac access-list TestMac on TenGigabitEthernet 0/1
Total cam count 2
seq 5 permit aa:aa:aa:aa:00:00 00:00:00:00:ff:ff count (0 packets)
seq 10 deny any count (20072594 packets)

Standard MAC ACL Commands
When you create an access control list without any rule and then apply it to an interface, the ACL behavior reflects implicit
permit. These commands configure standard MAC ACLs.
The switch supports both Ingress and Egress MAC ACLs.
NOTE: For more information, also refer to the Commands Common to all ACL Types and Common MAC Access List
Commands sections.
deny
To drop packets that match the filter criteria, configure a filter.
Syntax
deny {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]]
To remove this filter, you have two choices:
● Use the no seq sequence-number command if you know the filter’s sequence number.
● Use the no deny {any | host mac-address | mac-source-address mac-source-
address-mask} {any | host mac-address | mac-destination-address mac-
destination-address-mask} command.
Parameters
any Enter the keyword any to drop all packets.
host mac-
address
Enter the keyword host and then enter a MAC address to drop packets with that
host address.
mac-source-
address
Enter a MAC address in nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn format.
mac-source-
address-mask
Specify which bits in the MAC address must match.
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-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 match.
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.
