xStack DGS/DXS-3300 Series Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch CLI Manual

create access_profile (ipv6)
Purpose
Used to create an access profile on the Switch by examining the IPv6
part of the packet header. Masks can be entered that will be combined
with the values the Switch finds in the specified frame header fields.
Specific values for the rules are entered using the
config
access_profile
command, below.
Syntax
create access_profile ipv6 {class | flowlabel | source_ipv6_mask
<ipv6mask> | destination_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask>}] profile_id
<value 1-8>}
Description
This command is used to identify various parts of IPv6 packets that enter
the Switch so they can be either forwarded or filtered.
Parameters
ipv6
– Denotes that IPv6 packets will be examined by the Switch for
forwarding or filtering based on the rules configured in the
config
access_profile
command for IPv6. IPv6 packets may be identified by
the following:
•
class
– Entering this parameter will instruct the Switch to examine
the
class
field of the IPv6 header. This class field is a part of the
packet header that is similar to the Type of Service (ToS) or
Precedence bits field in IPv4.
•
flowlabel
– Entering this parameter will instruct the Switch to
examine the
flow label
field of the IPv6 header. This flow label field
is used by a source to label sequences of packets such as non-
default quality of service or real time service packets.
•
source_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask>
- Specifies an IP address mask for
the source IPv6 address.
•
destination_ipv6_mask <ipv6mask>
- Specifies an IP address
mask for the destination IPv6 address.
profile_id <value 1-8>
- Specifies an index number between 1 and 8 that
will identify the access profile being created with this command.
Restrictions Only
administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To create an access profile based on IPv6 classification:
DGS-3324SRi:4#create access_profile ipv6 class flowlabel profile_id 4
Command: create access_profile ipv6 class flowlabel profile_id 4
Success.
DGS-3324SRi:4#
config access_profile profile_id (ipv6)
Purpose
Used to configure the IPv6 access profile on the Switch and to
define specific values for the rules that will be used to by the Switch
to determine if a given packet should be forwarded or filtered. Masks
entered using the
create access_profile
command will be
combined, using a logical AND operational method, with the values
the Switch finds in the specified frame header fields.
