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 inst”ad.

Commands
● deny — configure a MAC ACL filter to drop packets.
● seq — configure a MAC ACL filter with a specified sequence number.
seq
To a deny or permit filter in a MAC access list while creating the filter, assign a sequence number.
Syntax
deny {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 deny {any | mac-source-address mac-source-address-mask} command.
Parameters
any Enter the keyword any to specify that all routes are subject to the filter.
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 include ACL messages in the log.
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 threshold 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. For more information, see “Flow-based Monitoring” in
the Port Monitoring section in the Dell EMC Networking OS Configuration Guide.
