Usage Guidelines A newly created IPv6 ACL contains no rules.
When the device applies an IPv6 ACL to a packet, it evaluates the packet with every rule in the ACL.
The device enforces the first rule whose conditions are satisfied by the packet. When the conditions of
more than one rule are satisfied, the device enforces the rule with the lowest sequence number.
Source and Destination
You can specify the source and destination arguments in one of several ways. In each rule, the method
you use to specify one of these arguments does not affect how you specify the other. When you configure
a rule, use the following methods to specify the source and destination arguments:
•
•
OL-27883-02
(Optional) ICMPv6 message type that the rule matches. This argument can
be an integer from 0 to 255 or one of the keywords listed under the
Message Types"
(Optional) Specifies that the device generates an informational logging
message about each packet that matches the rule. The message includes the
following information:

Modification
This command was introduced.
Address and variable-length subnet mask—You can use an IPv6 address followed by a
variable-length subnet mask (VLSM) to specify a host or a network as a source or destination. The
syntax is as follows:
IPv6-address/prefix-len
This example shows how to specify the source argument with the IPv6 address and VLSM for the
2001:0db8:85a3:: network:
switch(config-ipv6-acl)# permit icmp 2001:0db8:85a3::/48 any
Host address—You can use the host keyword and an IPv6 address to specify a host as a source or
destination. The syntax is as follows:
host IPv6-address
This syntax is equivalent to IPv6-address/128.
This example shows how to specify the source argument with the host keyword and the
2001:0db8:85a3:08d3:1319:8a2e:0370:7344 IPv6 address:
