Allowed Traffic Rule-Type on a Port (S-, K-Series)

Allowed traffic rule-type on a port provides for the setting, for each port, of the traffic classification rule-types that will be allowed or ignored in an admin-profile. By default, all traffic rule-types are allowed.

Use the set policy allowed-type command to configure a subset of traffic rule-types that will be allowed on the specified ports. All unspecified traffic rule-types will be disallowed. The append option provides for the addition of specified rule-types for the current subset of allowed rule-types. The clear option provides for setting the specified rule-types to disallowed.

Use the show policy allowed-type command to display a table of the current allowed and disallowed traffic rule-types for the specified port(s). The show policy allowed-type command is also available on the 7100-Series platform.

See Administrative Policy and Policy Rule Traffic Classifications for a listing of supported traffic classification rule-types. Use the attribute ID value, specified in Administrative Policy and Policy Rule Traffic Classifications, in the rule list for the set policy allowed-type command to identify the traffic classification to be added to or deleted from the allowed-type list for the specified ports.

The following example specifies that only traffic rule-type 1 (Source MAC Address) will be allowed for the admin-profile associated with port ge.1.5. All other rule-types will be ignored:
