• 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.

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 instead.
