ACL comment text management
For ACL-num, enter the number of the ACL.
The comment-text can be up to 128 ch aracte rs in length . The comment must be entered separately
from the actual ACL entry; that is, you cannot enter the ACL entry and the ACL comment with the
same access-list or ip access-list command. Also, in order for the remark to be displayed correctly
in the output of show commands, the comment must be entered immediately before the ACL entry
it describes. Note that an ACL comment is tied to the ACL entry immediately following the comment.
Therefore, if the ACL entry is removed, the ACL comment is also removed.
The standard | extended parameter indicates the ACL type.
Adding a comment to an entry in a named ACL
To add comments to entries in a named ACL, enter commands such as the following.
Syntax: [no] access-list standard | extended ACL-name
