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.
You can activate flow-based monitoring for a monitoring session by entering the flow-based enable command in
the Monitor Session mode. When you enable this capability, traffic with particular flows that are traversing
through the ingress and egress interfaces are examined and, appropriate ACLs can be applied in both the ingress
and egress direction. Flow-based monitoring conserves bandwidth by monitoring only specified traffic instead all
traffic on the interface. This feature is particularly useful when looking for malicious traffic. It is available for Layer
2 and Layer 3 ingress and egress traffic. You may specify traffic using standard or extended access-lists. This
mechanism copies all incoming or outgoing packets on one port and forwards (mirrors) them to another port. The
source port is the monitored port (MD) and the destination port is the monitoring port (MG).

Commands
• ip access-list standard — configure a standard ACL.
• permit — configure a permit filter.
deny (for Extended IP ACLs)
Configure a filter that drops IP packets meeting the filter criteria.
Syntax
deny {ip | ip-protocol-number} {source mask | any | host ip-address}
{destination mask | any | host ip-address} [ttl operator] [count [byte]] [dscp
value] [order] [monitor] [fragments] [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 {ip | ip-protocol-number} {source mask | any | host ip-address}
{destination mask | any | host ip-address} command.
Parameters
ttl Enter the keyword ttl to deny a packet based on the time to live value. The range is
from 1 to 255.
operator Enter one of the following logical operand:
• eq(equal to) — matches packets that contain a ttl value that is equal to the specified
ttl value.
• neq(not equal to) — matches packets that contain a ttl value that is not equal to the
specified ttl value.
