API Guide

deny
To drop packets that match the filter criteria, configure a filter.
C9000 Series
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]] [log [interval minutes] [threshold-in-msgs
[count]] [monitor]
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.
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 processed by the filter.
byte (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword byte to count bytes processed by the filter.
log (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword log to include ACL messages in the log.
threshold-in msgs
count
(OPTIONAL) Enter the threshold-in-msgs keyword followed by a value to indicate
the maximum number of ACL logs that can be generated, exceeding which the generation
of ACL logs is terminated with the seq, permit, or deny commands. The threshold
range is from 1 to 100.
interval minutes (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword interval followed by the time period in minutes at
which ACL logs must be generated. The threshold range is from 1 to 10 minutes.
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. For more information, refer to the “Flow-based Monitoring” section
in the Port Monitoring chapter of the Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide.
