Enable Access-List Permit To-Cpu - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Command Reference Manual

ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
ACL Commands

enable access-list permit to-cpu

enable access-list permit to-cpu
Description
Enables control packets to reach CPU, even if an ACL would deny them.
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or variables.
Default
Enabled.
Usage Guidelines
This command allows control packets to reach the CPU, even if the packets match ACLs that would
otherwise deny them. The control packets include STP and EAPS BPDUs, and ARP replies for the
switch.
If this feature is disabled, these same packets will be denied if an ACL is applied that contains a
matching entry that denies the packets. Contrary to expectations, when this feature is disabled, the
packets will still be denied if there is a higher precedence entry that permits the packets.
To disable this feature, use the following command:
enable access-list permit to-cpu
Example
The following command enables STP BPDU packets to reach the switch CPU, despite any ACL:
enable access-list permit to-cpu
History
This command was first available in ExtremeWare XOS 11.3.2.
Platform Availability
This command is available only on the BlackDiamond 8800 family and Summit X450 switches.
