COMMAND LINE INTERFACE

permit, deny (MAC ACL)

This command adds a rule to a MAC ACL. The rule filters packets matching a specified MAC source or destination address (i.e., physical layer address), or Ethernet protocol type. Use the no form to remove a rule.

Syntax

[no] {permit deny}

{any host source source address-bitmask}

{any host destination destination address-bitmask} [vid vid [vid-end]] [ethertype protocol [protocol-end]]

Note:- The default is for Ethernet II packets.

•any – Any MAC source or destination address.

•host – A specific MAC address.

•source – Source MAC address.

•destination – Destination MAC address range with bitmask.

•address-bitmask18– Bitmask for MAC address (in hexidecimal format).

•vid – VLAN ID. (Range: 1-4094)

•vid-end– Upper bound of VID range. (Range: 1-4094)

•protocol – A specific Ethernet protocol number. (Range: 0-65535)

•protocol-end– Upper bound of protocol range. (Range: 0-65535)

Default Setting

None

Command Mode

MAC ACL

Command Usage

•New rules are added to the end of the list.

•The ethertype option can only be used to filter Ethernet II formatted packets.

18.For all bitmasks, “1” means care and “0” means ignore.
