create access_profile (ipv6)
Purpose | Used to create an access profile on the Switch by examining the |
| IPv6 part of the packet header. Masks can be entered that will be |
| combined with the values the Switch finds in the specified frame |
| header fields. Specific values for the rules are entered using the |
| config access_profile command, below. |
Syntax | create access_profile ipv6 profile_id <value |
| flowlabel source_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask> |
| destination_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask>}] |
Description | This command is used to identify various parts of IPv6 packets that |
| enter the Switch so they can be either forwarded or filtered. |
Parameters | profile_id <value |
| that will identify the access profile being created with this command. |
| ipv6 – Denotes that IPv6 packets will be examined by the Switch for |
| forwarding or filtering based on the rules configured in the config |
| access_profile command for IPv6. IPv6 packets may be identified |
| by the following: |
| • class – Entering this parameter will instruct the Switch to |
| examine the class field of the IPv6 header. This class field is a |
| part of the packet header that is similar to the Type of Service |
| (ToS) or Precedence bits field in IPv4. |
| • flowlabel – Entering this parameter will instruct the Switch to |
| examine the flow label field of the IPv6 header. This flow label |
| field is used by a source to label sequences of packets such as |
| |
| • source_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask> - Specifies an IP address |
| mask for the source IPv6 address. |
| • destination_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask> - Specifies an IP address |
| mask for the destination IPv6 address. |
Restrictions | Only |

Example usage:
To create an access profile based on IPv6 classification:
Command: create access_profile ipv6 class flowlabel profile_id 4
Success.
