mac-
destination-
address-mask
Specify which bits in the MAC address must be matched.
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.
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.
NOTE: For more information, refer to the Flow-based
Monitoring section in the Port Monitoring chapter of the
Dell Networking OS Configuration Guide.

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 ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously,
byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with
logging instead.
