Creating an Advanced ACL6

Procedure

1. Run system-view

   The system view is displayed.

2. Run acl ipv6 { name advance-acl6-name [ advance ] | [ number ] advance-acl6-number } [ match-order { config | auto } ]

   An advanced ACL6 is created.

   The advanced ACL6 number ranges from 3000 to 3999.

3. (Optional) Run step step

   An ACL6 step is set.

   You can use an ACL6 step to maintain ACL6 rules and add new ACL6 rules conveniently.

   

   Assume that a user has created four rules numbered from 1 to 4 in an ACL6. The user can reconfigure the ACL6 step, for example, to 2 by running the step 2 command in the ACL6 view. The original rule numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 are renumbered as 2, 4, 6, and 8, respectively. After that, the user can run the rule 3 xxxx command to add a rule numbered 3 between the renumbered rules 2 and 4.

4. (Optional) Run description text

   The ACL6 description is configured.

   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.

5. Run commit

   The configuration is committed.
