Usage 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.
NOTE: When you configure the ACL logging and byte counters simultaneously, byte counters may
display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging inst”ad.
Related Commands
deny — configure a MAC ACL filter to drop packets.
seq — configure a MAC ACL filter with a specified sequence number.
seq
To a deny or permit filter in a MAC access list while creating the filter, assign a sequence number.
Syntax
deny {any | mac-source-address [mac-source-address-mask]} [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 | mac-source-address mac-source-address-mask} command.
Parameters
any Enter the keyword any to specify that all routes are subject to the filter.
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) 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.
