Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The description command configures the description of an ACL or ACL6, for example, the usage or application scenario of the ACL. It is used to differentiate ACLs.

Prerequisites

The ACL or ACL6 to be described has been created.

Configuration Impact

If you run the description command multiple times in the same ACL view or ACL6 view, only the latest configuration takes effect.

Example

# Configure the description of ACL 2100.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] acl 2100
[HUAWEI-acl-basic-2100] description This acl is used in QoS policy

[HUAWEI-acl-basic-2100] display acl 2100
Basic ACL 2100, 0 rule                                                                                                              
This acl is used in QoS policy                                                                                                      
Acl's step is 5

# Configure the description of ACL6 3100.
