3Com 5500 Switch User Manual


 
Configuring User-Defined ACLs 213
With the Switch 5500/5500G, for a user-defined ACL to be assigned
successfully, the maximum length of a user-defined rule string is 32 bytes. The
string may or may not contain spaces, and can occupy up to eight mask offset
units. Besides, any two offset units cannot belong to the same offset group.
For example, assuming that you configure ACL 5000, specifying a 32-byte rule
string, a rule mask of all Fs, and an offset of 4 and then apply the ACL to
Ethernet 1/0/1. In this case, the 32-byte rule string occupies eight offset units:
4 to 7 (Offset2), 8 to 11 (Offset3), 12 to 15 (Offset4), 16 to 19 (Offset5), 20 to
23 (Offset1), 24 to 27 (Offset7), 28 to 31 (Offset8), and 32 to 35 (Offset6), as
shown in Table 2. The rule can be assigned successfully.
If you configure ACL 5001, specifying a 32-byte rule string, a rule mask of all
Fs, and an offset of 24 and then apply the ACL to Ethernet 1/0/1: In this case,
the 32-byte rule string does not comply with the rule that a user-defined rule
string can contain up to eight mask offset units and any two offset units
cannot belong to the same offset. The ACL cannot be assigned.
The common protocol types and their offsets are listed in the following table.
