Administrator Guide
Usage Information
When the configured maximum threshold is exceeded, generation of logs is stopped. When the interval at which 
ACL logs are configured to be recorded expires, the subsequent, fresh interval timer is started and the packet 
count for that new interval commences from zero. If ACL logging was stopped previously because the configured 
threshold is exceeded, it is re-enabled for this new interval.
If ACL logging is stopped because the configured threshold is exceeded, it is re-enabled after the logging interval 
period elapses. ACL logging is supported for standard and extended IPv4 ACLs, IPv6 ACLs, and MAC ACLs. You 
can configure ACL logging only on ACLs that are applied to ingress interfaces; you cannot enable logging for ACLs 
that are associated with egress interfaces.

Commands
• deny — assign a filter to deny IP traffic.
• deny tcp — assign a filter to deny TCP traffic.
deny arp (for Extended MAC ACLs)
Configure an egress filter that drops ARP packets on egress ACL supported line cards. (For more information, refer to your line card 
documentation).
Syntax
deny arp {destination-mac-address mac-address-mask | any} vlan vlan-id {ip-
address | any | opcode code-number} [count [byte]] [order] [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 arp {destination-mac-address mac-address-mask | any} vlan vlan-
id {ip-address | any | opcode code-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. The threshold 
range is from 1 to 100.
interval 
minutes
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword interval followed by the time period in minutes at 
which ACL logs must be generated. The time interval range is from 1 to 10 minutes.
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.
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 five minutes. By default, flow-based monitoring is not 
enabled.
