MAC Filter Entry Commands

action
Syntax action drop
action forward
no action
Context config>filter>mac-filter>entry
Description This command configures the action for a MAC filter entry. The action keyword must be entered for
the entry to be active. Any filter entry without the action keyword will be considered incomplete and
will be inactive.
If neither drop nor forward is specified, this is considered a No-Op filter entry used to explicitly set a
filter entry inactive without modifying match criteria or removing the entry itself.
Multiple action statements entered will overwrite previous actions parameters when defined. To
remove a parameter, use the no form of the action command with the specified parameter.
The no form of the command removes the specified action statement. The filter entry is considered
incomplete and hence rendered inactive without the action keyword.
Default none
Parameters
drop — Specifies packets matching the entry criteria will be dropped.
forward — Specifies packets matching the entry criteria will be forwarded. If neither drop nor
match
Syntax match
no match
Context config>filter>mac-filter>entry
Description
This command creates the context for entering/editing match criteria for the filter entry and specifies
an Ethernet frame type for the entry. When the match criteria have been satisfied the action associated
with the match criteria is executed.
If more than one match criteria (within one match statement) are configured then all criteria must be
satisfied (AND function) before the action associated with the match will be executed.
A match context may consist of multiple match criteria, but multiple match statements cannot be
entered per entry.
The no form of the command removes the match criteria for the entry-id.
