access-group mode {prefer {port | vlan} | merge}
no access-group mode {prefer {port | vlan} | merge}

PACL features are configured on the port, other features applicable to the
interface are merged and applied on the interface.
Specifies that the VLAN-based ACL mode take precedence. If no VLAN-based
ACL features are configured on the port's VLAN, the PACL features on the port
are applied.
Merges applicable ACL features before they are programmed into the hardware.
