Chapter 1 Controlling CSS Access

Controlling CSS Network Traffic Through Access Control Lists

DNS Hits - Packets that match an ACL clause for DNS flows when an ACL clause is applied to DNS queries. The display includes a DNS hit counter, which counts DNS lookups.

The total number of ACL hits for each packet received by the CSS can vary depending on the type of flow and whether an ACL match occurred. The CSS performs an ACL check for every packet received until the ACL flow is completely set up. Once the ACL flow is set up, remaining packets received by the CSS that are associated with the flow are not subject to an ACL match and the ACL hit counters do not increment.

The syntax is:

show acl - Displays all ACLs and their clauses.

show acl index - Displays the clauses for the specified ACL index number (valid numbers are 1 to 99).

show acl config - Displays the ACL global configuration. This command also shows you which ACLs are applied to which circuits.

For example, enter:

(config)# show acl 2

Table 1-3describes the fields in the show acl command output.
