Information
When you use the log option, the CP processor logs details about the packets that
match. Depending on how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the
CP may become busy as it has to log these packets’ details.
NOTE: When you configure the ACL logging and byte counters
simultaneously, byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure
packet counters with logging instead.
