Log Filter Entry Commands
Log Filter Entry Commands
action
Syntax
Syntax action {drop | forward}
no action
Context config>log>filter filter-id>entry entry-id
Description
This command specifies a drop or forward action associated with the filter entry. If neither drop nor
forward is specified, the default-action will be used for traffic that conforms to the match criteria.
This could be considered a No-Op filter entry used to explicitly exit a set of filter entries without
modifying previous actions.
Multiple action statements entered will overwrite previous actions.
The no form of the command removes the specified action statement.
Default Action specified by the default-action command will apply.
Parameters
drop — Specifies packets matching the entry criteria will be dropped.
forward — Specifies packets matching the entry criteria will be forwarded.
entry
Syntax [no] entry entry-id
Context config>log>filter filter-id
Description This command is used to create or edit an event filter entry. Multiple entries may be created using
unique entry-id numbers. The TiMOS implementation exits the filter on the first match found and
executes the action in accordance with the action command.
Comparisons are performed in an ascending entry ID order. When entries are created, they should be
arranged sequentially from the most explicit entry to the least explicit. Matching ceases when a
packet matches an entry. The entry action is performed on the packet, either drop or forward. To be
considered a match, the packet must meet all the conditions defined in the entry.
An entry may not have any match criteria defined (in which case, everything matches) but must have
at least the keyword action for it to be considered complete. Entries without the action keyword will
be considered incomplete and are rendered inactive.
The no form of the command removes the specified entry from the event filter. Entries removed from
the event filter are immediately removed from all log-id's where the filter is applied.
Default
No event filter entries are defined. An entry must be explicitly configured.
