Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The description command configures a description for an ACL6 in any of the following situations:

  • A large number of ACL6s are configured, and their functions are difficult to identify.
  • An ACL6 is used at a long interval, and its function may be left forgotten.
  • Names of named ACL6s cannot fully explain the ACL6s' functions.

Precautions

If the description of an ACL6 is not configured, the ACL6 may be misunderstood or misused.

Example

# Configure a description for an ACL6 numbered 3100.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] acl ipv6 3100
[*HUAWEI-acl6-advance-3100] description This acl is used in GigabitEthernet 0/1/0
