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 congure the ACL logging and byte counters simultaneously, byte counters may
display an incorrect value. Congure packet counters with logging instead.
