enable acl-counter

Enables or disables ACL counters globally.

Syntax

enable acl-counter
no enable acl-counter

Modes

ACL config mode

Usage Guidelines

The enable acl-counter command is enabled by default.

When this command is enabled, ACLs update their count to the extreme-policy-statistics module in the Extreme YANG tree.

The show running configuration command does not show the enable acl-counter command because it is the default value.

When the enable acl-counter command is disabled, the count option in ACL rules comes into effect. The count is published to the extreme-policy-statistics module and other control plane applications for ACL rules that explicitly specify the count option.

The no form of the command disables ACL counters globally.

Examples

The following examples shows how to configure ACL counters.

device(conf)# acl-config 
device(conf-acl-config)# enable acl-counter 
device(config)# ip access-list acl-ipv4-1 
device(config-ip-acl)# seq 10 permit tcp any any count
     <- This ACL clause will display count. 
device(config-ip-acl)# seq 20 deny ip any any 
     <- This ACL clause also will display count. 

device(conf)# acl-config 
device(conf-acl-config)# no enable acl-counter 
device(config)# ip access-list acl-ipv4-1 
device(config-ip-acl)# seq 10 permit tcp any any count 
    <- This ACL clause will display count. 

device(config-ip-acl)# seq 20 deny ip any any
    <- This ACL clause will not display count. 

device# show running-config acl-config
