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.
•
gt(greater than) — matches packets that contain a ttl value that is greater than the
specified ttl value.
• lt (less than) — matches packets that contain a ttl value that is less than the
specified ttl value.

Enter a flag or combination of bits:
• ack: acknowledgement field
• fin: finish (no more data from the user)
• psh: push function
• rst: reset the connection
• syn: synchronize sequence numbers
• urg: urgent field
• established: datagram of established TCP session
Use the established flag to match only ACK and RST flags of established TCP
session.
You cannot use established along with the other control flags
While using the established flag in an ACL rule, all the other TCP control flags are
masked, to avoid redundant TCP control flags configuration in a single rule. When you use
any TCP control flag in an ACL rule,
established is masked and other control flags are
available.

• eq = equal to
• neq = not equal to

Enter the application layer port number. Enter two port numbers if using the range logical
operand. The range is from 0 to 65535.
