History
Version 8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
The Dell operating system supports one ingress and one egress MAC ACL per
interface.
The number of entries allowed per ACL is hardware-dependent. For detailed
specification about entries allowed per ACL, refer to your switch documentation.
The MXL Switch supports both ingress and egress ACLs.
Example
Dell(conf)#mac-access-list access-list standard TestMAC
Dell(config-std-macl)#permit 00:00:00:00:00:00
00:00:00:00:ff:ff count
Dell(config-std-macl)#deny any count
permit
To forward packets from a specific source MAC address, configure a filter.
Syntax
permit {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 permit {any | mac-source-address mac-source-
address-mask
} command.
Parameters
any Enter the keyword any to forward all packets received with a
MAC address.
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 enable the triggering
of ACL log messages.
