Default ACL configuration

DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
MAC ACLs are supported on the following interface types:
• Physical interfaces
• Logical interfaces (LAGs)
• VLANs
Default ACL configuration
Table 22 lists the default ACL configuration.
ACL configuration guidelines and restrictions
Follow these ACL configuration guidelines and restrictions when configuring ACLs:
• The order of the rules in an ACL is critical. The first rule that matches the traffic stops further
processing of the frames.
• Standard ACLs and extended ACLs cannot have the same name.
ACL configuration and management
You need to enter either the copy running-config startup-config command or the write memory
command to save your configuration changes to Flash so that they are not lost if there is a system
reload or power outage.
Creating a standard MAC ACL and adding rules
NOTE
You can use the resequence command to change all the sequence numbers assigned to the rules
in a MAC ACL. For detailed information, see “Reordering the sequence numbers in a MAC ACL” on
page 104.
To create a standard MAC ACL and add rules, perform the following steps from privileged EXEC
mode.
1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
2. Create a standard MAC ACL and enter ACL configuration mode.
In this example, the name of the standard MAC ACL is “test_01.”
switch(config)#mac access-list standard test_01
