Users Guide

both the ingress and egress direction. Flow-based monitoring conserves bandwidth by monitoring only
specied trac instead all trac on the interface. This feature is particularly useful when looking for
malicious trac. It is available for Layer 2 and Layer 3 ingress and egress trac. You may specify trac using
standard or extended access-lists. This mechanism copies all incoming or outgoing packets on one port and
forwards (mirrors) them to another port. The source port is the monitored port (MD) and the destination
port is the monitoring port (MG).
seq ether-type (for Extended MAC ACLs)
Congure an egress lter with a specic sequence number that lters trac with specied types of Ethernet packets. This
command is supported only on 12-port GE line cards with SFP optics. For specications, refer to your line card documentation.
NOTE: Only the options that have been newly introduced in Release 9.3(0.0) and Release 9.4(0.0) are described here.
For a complete description on all of the keywords and variables that are available with this command, refer the topic of
this command discussed earlier in this guide.
Syntax
seq sequence-number {deny | permit} ether-type protocol-type-number
{destination-mac-address mac-address-mask | any} vlan vlan-id {source-mac-
address mac-address-mask | any} [count [byte]] [order] [log [interval
minutes] [threshold-in-msgs [count]] [monitor]
To remove this lter, use the no seq sequence-number command.
Parameters
log (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword log to enable the triggering of ACL log messages.
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.
You can enter a threshold in the range of 1-100.
interval minutes (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword interval followed by the time period in minutes
at which ACL logs must be generated. You can enter an interval in the range of 1-10
minutes.
monitor (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword monitor when the rule is describing the trac
that you want to monitor and the ACL in which you are creating the rule is applied
to the monitored interface.
Defaults
By default, 10 ACL logs are generated if you do not specify the threshold explicitly.
The default frequency at which ACL logs are generated is 5 minutes. By default, ow-based monitoring is
not enabled.
