periodic

To specify a time range that is active one or more times per week, use the periodic command. To remove a periodic time range, use the no form of this command.

[sequence-number] periodic weekday time to [weekday] time

no {sequence-number | periodic weekday time to [weekday] time}

[sequence-number] periodic list-of-weekdays time to time

no {sequence-number | periodic list-of-weekdays time to time}

Syntax Description

sequence-number

(Optional) Sequence number of the rule, which causes the device to insert the command in that numbered position in the time range. Sequence numbers maintain the order of rules within a time range.

A sequence number can be any integer between 1 and 4294967295.

By default, the first rule in a time range has a sequence number of 10.

If you do not specify a sequence number, the device adds the rule to the end of the time range and assigns a sequence number that is 10 greater than the sequence number of the preceding rule.

Use the resequence command to reassign sequence numbers to rules.

weekday

Day of the week that the range begins or ends. The first occurrence of this argument is the day that the range starts. The second occurrence is the day that the range ends. If the second occurrence is omitted, the end of the range is on the same day as the start of the range.

The following keywords are valid values for the weekday argument:

monday

tuesday

wednesday

thursday

friday

saturday

sunday

time

Time of day that the range starts or ends. The first occurrence of this argument is the time that the range begins. The second occurrence of this argument is the time that the range ends.

You can specify the time argument in 24-hour notation, in the format hours:minutes or hours:minutes:seconds. For example, 8:00 a.m. is 8:00 and 8:00 p.m. is 20:00.

to

Separates the first and second occurrences of the time argument.

list-of-weekdays

(Optional) Days that the range is in effect. Valid values of this argument are as follows:

A space-delimited list of weekdays, such as the following:

monday thursday friday

daily—All days of the week.

weekdays—Monday through Friday.

no permit response ip {any | host sender-IP | sender-IP sender-IP-mask} {any | host target-IP | target-IP target-IP-mask} mac {any | host sender-MAC | sender-MAC sender-MAC-mask} [any | host target-MAC | target-MAC target-MAC-mask] [log]

Syntax Description

sequence-number

(Optional) Sequence number of the permit command, which causes the device to insert the command in that numbered position in the access list. Sequence numbers maintain the order of rules within an ACL.

A sequence number can be any integer between 1 and 4294967295.

By default, the first rule in an ACL has a sequence number of 10.

If you do not specify a sequence number, the device adds the rule to the end of the ACL and assigns a sequence number that is 10 greater than the sequence number of the preceding rule.

Use the resequence command to reassign sequence numbers to rules.

ip

Introduces the IP address portion of the rule.

any

Specifies that any host matches the part of the rule that contains the any keyword. You can use any to specify the sender IP address, target IP address, sender MAC address, and target MAC address.

host sender-IP

Specifies that the rules matches ARP packets only when the sender IP address in the packet matches the value of the sender-IP argument. Valid values for the sender-IP argument are IPv4 addresses in dotted-decimal format.

sender-IP sender-IP-mask

IPv4 address and mask for the set of IPv4 addresses that the sender IP address in the packet can match. The sender-IP and sender-IP-mask argument must be in dotted-decimal format. Specifying 255.255.255.255 as the sender-IP-mask argument is the equivalent of using the host keyword.

mac

Introduces the MAC address portion of the rule.

host sender-MAC

Specifies that the rule matches ARP packets only when the sender MAC address in the packet matches the value of the sender-MAC argument. Valid values for the sender-MAC argument are MAC addresses in dotted-hexadecimal format.

Note If you omit both the request and the response keywords, the rule applies to all ARP messages.

host target-IP

Specifies that the rule matches ARP packets only when the target IP address in the packet matches the value of the target-IP argument. You can specify host target-IP only when you use the response keyword. Valid values for the target-IP argument are IPv4 addresses in dotted-decimal format.

target-IP target-IP-mask

IPv4 address and mask for the set of IPv4 addresses that the target IP address in the packet can match. You can specify target-IP target-IP-mask only when you use the response keyword. The target-IP and target-IP-mask argument must be in dotted-decimal format. Specifying 255.255.255.255 as the target-IP-mask argument is the equivalent of using the host keyword.

host target-MAC

Specifies that the rule matches ARP packets only when the target MAC address in the packet matches the value of the target-MAC argument. You can specify host target-MAC only when you use the response keyword. Valid values for the target-MAC argument are MAC addresses in dotted-hexadecimal format.

target-MAC target-MAC-mask

MAC address and mask for the set of MAC addresses that the target MAC address in the packet can match. You can specify target-MAC target-MAC-mask only when you use the response keyword. The target-MAC and target-MAC-mask argument must be in dotted-hexadecimal format. Specifying ffff.ffff.ffff as the target-MAC-mask argument is the equivalent of using the host keyword.

4.0(1)

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

A newly created ARP ACL contains no rules.

If you do not specify a sequence number, the device assigns to the rule a sequence number that is 10 greater than the last rule in the ACL.

When the device applies an ARP ACL to a packet, it evaluates the packet with every rule in the ACL. The device enforces the first rule that has conditions that are satisfied by the packet. When the conditions of more than one rule are satisfied, the device enforces the rule with the lowest sequence number.

If you do not specify either the response or request keyword, the rule applies to packets that contain any ARP message.

This command does not require a license.

Examples

This example shows how to enter ARP access list configuration mode for an ARP ACL named arp-acl-01 and add a rule that permits ARP request messages that contain a sender IP address that is within the 10.32.143.0 subnet:

switch# conf t
switch(config)# arp access-list arp-acl-01
switch(config-arp-acl)# permit request ip 10.32.143.0 255.255.255.0 mac any

operator port [port]

(Optional; TCP and UDP only) Rule matches only packets that are from a source port or sent to a destination port that satisfies the conditions of the operator and port arguments. Whether these arguments apply to a source port or a destination port depends upon whether you specify them after the source argument or after the destination argument.

The port argument can be the name or the number of a TCP or UDP port. Valid numbers are integers from 0 to 65535. For listings of valid port names, see "TCP Port Names" and "UDP Port Names" in the "Usage Guidelines" section.

A second port argument is required only when the operator argument is a range.

The operator argument must be one of the following keywords:

eq—Matches only if the port in the packet is equal to the port argument.

gt—Matches only if the port in the packet is greater than and not equal to the port argument.

lt—Matches only if the port in the packet is less than and not equal to the port argument.

neq—Matches only if the port in the packet is not equal to the port argument.

range—Requires two port arguments and matches only if the port in the packet is equal to or greater than the first port argument and equal to or less than the second port argument.

portgroup portgroup

(Optional; TCP and UDP only) Specifies that the rule matches only packets that are from a source port or to a destination port that is a member of the IP port object group specified by the portgroup argument, which can be up to 64 alphanumeric, case-sensitive characters. Whether the IP port object group applies to a source port or a destination port depends upon whether you specify it after the source argument or after the destination argument.

When the conditions of more than one rule are satisfied, the device enforces the rule with the lowest sequence number.

This command does not require a license.

Source and Destination

You can specify the source and destination arguments in one of several ways. In each rule, the method you use to specify one of these arguments does not affect how you specify the other. When you configure a rule, use the following methods to specify the source and destination arguments:

IP address group object—You can use an IPv4 address group object to specify a source or destination argument. Use the object-group ip address command to create and change IPv4 address group objects. The syntax is as follows:

addrgroup address-group-name

The following example shows how to use an IPv4 address object group named lab-gateway-svrs to specify the destination argument:

switch(config-acl)# permit ip any addrgroup lab-gateway-svrs

Address and network wildcard—You can use an IPv4 address followed by a network wildcard to specify a host or a network as a source or destination. The syntax is as follows:

IPv4-address network-wildcard

The following example shows how to specify the source argument with the IPv4 address and network wildcard for the 192.168.67.0 subnet:

switch(config-acl)# permit tcp 192.168.67.0 0.0.0.255 any

Address and variable-length subnet mask—You can use an IPv4 address followed by a variable-length subnet mask (VLSM) to specify a host or a network as a source or destination. The syntax is as follows:

IPv4-address/prefix-len

The following example shows how to specify the source argument with the IPv4 address and VLSM for the 192.168.67.0 subnet:

switch(config-acl)# permit udp 192.168.67.0/24 any

Host address—You can use the host keyword and an IPv4 address to specify a host as a source or destination. The syntax is as follows:

host IPv4-address

This syntax is equivalent to IPv4-address/32 and IPv4-address 0.0.0.0.

The following example shows how to specify the source argument with the host keyword and the 192.168.67.132 IPv4 address:

switch(config-acl)# permit icmp host 192.168.67.132 any

Any address—You can use the any keyword to specify that a source or destination is any IPv4 address. For examples of the use of the any keyword, see the examples in this section. Each example shows how to specify a source or destination by using the any keyword.

permit (MAC)

To create a MAC ACL rule that permits traffic matching its conditions, use the permit command. To remove a rule, use the no form of this command.

[sequence-number] permit source destination [protocol] [cos cos-value] [vlan VLAN-ID]

no permit source destination [protocol] [cos cos-value] [vlan VLAN-ID]

no sequence-number

Syntax Description

sequence-number

(Optional) Sequence number of the permit command, which causes the device to insert the command in that numbered position in the access list. Sequence numbers maintain the order of rules within an ACL.

A sequence number can be any integer between 1 and 4294967295.

By default, the first rule in an ACL has a sequence number of 10.

If you do not specify a sequence number, the device adds the rule to the end of the ACL and assigns a sequence number that is 10 greater than the sequence number of the preceding rule.

Use the resequence command to reassign sequence numbers to rules.

source

Source MAC addresses that the rule matches. For details about the methods that you can use to specify this argument, see "Source and Destination" in the "Usage Guidelines" section.

destination

Destination MAC addresses that the rule matches. For details about the methods that you can use to specify this argument, see "Source and Destination" in the "Usage Guidelines" section.

protocol

(Optional) Protocol number that the rule matches. Valid protocol numbers are 0x0 to 0xffff. For listings of valid protocol names, see "MAC Protocols" in the "Usage Guidelines" section.

cos cos-value

(Optional) Specifies that the rule matches only packets with an IEEE 802.1Q header that contains the Class of Service (CoS) value given in the cos-value argument. The cos-value argument can be an integer from 0 to 7.

vlan VLAN-ID

(Optional) Specifies that the rule matches only packets with an IEEE 802.1Q header that contains the VLAN ID given. The VLAN-ID argument can be an integer from 1 to 4094.

Usage Guidelines

A newly created MAC ACL contains no rules.

If you do not specify a sequence number, the device assigns a sequence number that is 10 greater than the last rule in the ACL.

When the device applies a MAC ACL to a packet, it evaluates the packet with every rule in the ACL. The device enforces the first rule that has conditions that are satisfied by the packet. When the conditions of more than one rule are satisfied, the device enforces the rule with the lowest sequence number.

This command does not require a license.

Source and Destination

You can specify the source and destination arguments in one of two ways. In each rule, the method you use to specify one of these arguments does not affect how you specify the other. When you configure a rule, use the following methods to specify the source and destination arguments:

Address and mask—You can use a MAC address followed by a mask to specify a single address or a group of addresses. The syntax is as follows:

MAC-address MAC-mask 

The following example specifies the source argument with the MAC address 00c0.4f03.0a72:

switch(config-acl)# permit 00c0.4f03.0a72 0000.0000.0000 any

The following example specifies the destination argument with a MAC address for all hosts with a MAC vendor code of 00603e:

switch(config-acl)# permit any 0060.3e00.0000 0000.0000.0000

Any address—You can use the any keyword to specify that a source or destination is any MAC address. For examples of the use of the any keyword, see the examples in this section. Each of the examples shows how to specify a source or destination by using the any keyword.

MAC Protocols

The protocol argument can be the MAC protocol number or a keyword. The protocol number is a four-byte hexadecimal number prefixed with 0x. Valid protocol numbers are from 0x0 to 0xffff. Valid keywords are the following:

aarp—Appletalk ARP (0x80f3)

appletalk—Appletalk (0x809b)

decnet-iv—DECnet Phase IV (0x6003)

diagnostic—DEC Diagnostic Protocol (0x6005)

etype-6000—Ethertype 0x6000 (0x6000)

etype-8042—Ethertype 0x8042 (0x8042)

ip—Internet Protocol v4 (0x0800)

lat—DEC LAT (0x6004)

lavc-sca—DEC LAVC, SCA (0x6007)

mop-console—DEC MOP Remote console (0x6002)

mop-dump—DEC MOP dump (0x6001)

vines-echo—VINES Echo (0x0baf)

Examples

This example shows how to configure a MAC ACL named mac-ip-filter with a rule that permits all IPv4 traffic between two groups of MAC addresses:

switch# config t
switch(config)# mac access-list mac-ip-filter
