Usage Guidelines

Application Scenarios

The rule-id parameter identifies a rule, but cannot describe the meaning and usage of the rule. The description with a character string can be used to solve the problem.

Prerequisites

The ACL rule has been created. If the ACL rule does not exist, the system displays an error message when you run this command.

Precautions

If the rule description command is run repeatedly, the latest configuration takes effect.

After you run the undo rule rule-id command, the rule and rule description are deleted.

Example

# Configure the description for rule 5 in acl 2001, which permits the packets from 192.168.32.1.
