MAC configuring class entries

Syntax

A class is composed of entries that describe the traffic to be matched and ignored. Later, when the class is added to a policy, an action can be applied to the matched traffic. Traffic that is ignored excludes the traffic from the rest of the policy and takes no action. A class can be composed of many entries, which are processed sequentially.

Behavior

match: Create a rule to match specified packets.
ignore: Create a rule to ignore specified packets.

SOURCE MAC

any: Match packets with any source MAC address.
host: Match a specified source MAC address.
SRC-MAC: Match a specified source MAC address Range.
SRC-MAC-MASK: The source MAC address mask.

DESTINATION MAC

any: Match packets with any source MAC address.
host: Match a specified source MAC address.
SRC-MAC: Match a specified source MAC address Range.
SRC-MAC-MASK: The source MAC address mask.

ETHERTYPE

600-FFFF: Match a specific EtherType.
any: Match any EtherType.
aarp: AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol.
appletalk: AppleTalk/EtherTalk.
arp: Address Resolution Protocol.
fcoe: Fibre Channel over Ethernet.
fcoe-init: Fibre Channel over Ethernet Initialization.
lldp: Link Layer Discovery Protocol.
ip: Internet Protocol Version 4.
ipv6: Internet Protocol Version 6.
ipx-arpa: IPX Advanced Research Projects Agency.
ipx-non-arpa: IPX non-ARPA
is-is: Intermediate System to Intermediate System
