ACL configuration procedures
7
Applying MAC ACLs to Layer 2 interfaces (physical or logical):
- Applying a MAC ACL to a LAG interface is the same as applying a MAC ACL to an individual
physical interface.
- If a physical interface has a MAC ACL applied to it, the interface cannot become a member
of a LAG.
The maximum number of rules supported per MAC ACL is 256.
The maximum number of rules on which counters can be enabled is 256 per port group.
ACL configuration procedures
NOTE
To see the minimum configuration required to enable FCoE on the Brocade 8000 CEE switch, refer
to “FCoE minimum configuration” on page 130.
NOTE
You need to enter either the copy running-config startup-config command or the write memory
command to save your configuration changes to Flash so that they are not lost if there is a system
reload or power outage.
