permit
To forward packets from a specific source MAC address, configure a filter.
S4820T
Syntax
permit {any | mac-source-address [mac-source-address-mask]}
[count [byte]] | [log] [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, E-Series only) Enter the keyword log to log the
packets.
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.

Monitoring section in the Port Monitoring chapter of the
