Usage
Information
Use the order option only when you use policy-based QoS on the switch. For more information, refer to
the Quality of Service chapter of the C9000 Series Configuration Guide.
When you use the log option, the CP processor logs detail 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.
Use the monitor option only when you are using flow-based monitoring. For more information, refer to
the Port Monitoring chapter of the C9000 Series Configuration Guide.
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.
The monitor option is relevant in the context of flow-based monitoring only. For more information, refer
to Port Monitoring.
NOTE: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may
display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.
permit tcp
To pass TCP packets meeting the filter criteria, configure a filter.
C9000 Series
Syntax
permit tcp {source mask | any | host ip-address} [bit] [operator port
[port]] {destination mask | any | host ip-address} [bit] [dscp] [operator
port [port]] [count [bytes]] [log] [order] [monitor] [fragments]
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 tcp {source mask | any | host ip-address} {destination
mask | any | host ip-address} command.
Parameters
source Enter the IP address of the network or host from which the packets were sent.
mask Enter a network mask in /prefix format (/x) or A.B.C.D. The mask, when specified
in A.B.C.D format, may be either contiguous or non-contiguous.
any Enter the keyword any to specify that all routes are subject to the filter.
host ip-address Enter the keyword host then the IP address to specify a host IP address.
bit Enter a flag or combination of bits:
● ack: acknowledgement field
● fin: finish (no more data from the user)
● psh: push function
