To configure MAC ACL rules:
From the ACL Name field, specify the existing MAC ACL to which the rule will apply. To
1.
set up a new MAC ACL use the
To add a new rule, enter an ID for the rule, configure the following settings, and click Add.
2.
Action. Specify what action should be taken if a packet matches the rule's criteria:
•
Permit: Forwards packets that meet the ACL criteria.
•
Deny: Drops packets that meet the ACL criteria.
•
Assign Queue. Specifies the hardware egress queue identifier used to handle all
•
packets matching this ACL rule. Enter an identifying number from 0–7 in this field.
Redirect Interface. Specifies the specific egress interface where the matching traffic
•
stream is forced, bypassing any forwarding decision normally performed by the
device.
Match Every. Requires a packet to match the criteria of this ACL. Select True or
•
False from the drop-down menu. Match Every is exclusive to the other filtering rules,
so if Match Every is True, the other rules on the screen are not available.
CoS. Requires a packet's class of service (CoS) to match the CoS value listed here.
•
Enter a CoS value between 0–7 to apply this criteria.
Destination MAC. Requires an Ethernet frame's destination port MAC address to
•
match the address listed here. Enter a MAC address in this field. The valid format is
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
Destination MAC Mask. If desired, enter the MAC Mask associated with the
•
Destination MAC to match. The MAC address mask specifies which bits in the
destination MAC to compare against an Ethernet frame. Use Fs and zeros in the MAC
mask, which is in a wildcard format. An F means that the bit is not checked, and a
zero in a bit position means that the data must equal the value given for that bit. For
example, if the MAC address is aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff, and the mask is 00:00:ff:ff:ff:ff, all
MAC addresses with aa:bb:xx:xx:xx:xx result in a match (where x is any hexadecimal
number). A MAC mask of 00:00:00:00:00:00 matches a single MAC address.
EtherType Key. Requires a packet's EtherType to match the EtherType you select.
•
Select the EtherType value from the drop down menu. If you select User Value, you
can enter a custom EtherType value.
