IPv6 Access Control List Commands
This section describes the commands you use to configure IPv6 Access Control List (ACL) settings. IPv6 ACLs
ensure that only authorized users have access to specific resources and block any unwarranted attempts to
reach network resources.
The following rules apply to IPv6 ACLs:
• The maximum number of ACLs you create is 100, regardless of type.
• The system supports only Ethernet II frame types.
• The maximum number of rules per IPv6 ACL is hardware dependent.
ipv6 access-list
This command creates an IPv6 Access Control List (ACL) identified by name, consisting of classification fields
defined for the IP header of an IPv6 frame. The
name parameter is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string from 1
to 31 characters uniquely identifying the IPv6 access list. The rate-limit attribute configures the committed rate
and the committed burst size.
If an IPv6 ACL by this name already exists, this command enters IPv6-Access-List config mode to allow updating
the existing IPv6 ACL.
no ipv6 access-list
This command deletes the IPv6 ACL identified by name from the system.
ipv6 access-list rename
This command changes the name of an IPv6 ACL. The name parameter is the name of an existing IPv6 ACL. The
newname parameter is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string from 1 to 31 characters uniquely identifying the IPv6
access list.
This command fails is an IPv6 ACL by the name
newname already exists.
Note: The CLI mode changes to IPv6-Access-List Config mode when you successfully execute this
command.
