This section provides more details on filter scaling numbers for the supported platforms.

128 IPv6 ingress ACLs
1,020 IPv4 ingress ACEs
252 IPv4 egress ACEs
255 IPv6 ingress ACEs
255 IPv6 egress ACEs
Note
You can configure up to 1000 ACEs in a single ACL.
The switch supports the following maximum limits regarding ingress ACLs (inPort or inVlan):
256 ( InPort security ACE + ACL) + 256 (inVlan security ACE +ACL) + 256 (inPort QoS ACE + ACL) + 256 (inVlan QoS ACE + ACL)
The switch supports the following maximum limits:
512 non-IPv6 ingress ACLs (inPort, inVSN, or inVlan):
512 ACLs with 1 security ACE each OR
256 ACLs with 1 QoS ACE each OR
a combination based on the following rule:
( (num ACLs + num security ACEs) <= 1024) && ((num ACLs + num QoS ACEs) <= 512)
This maximum implies a VLAN member count of 1 for inVlan ACLs
512 IPv6 ingress ACLs (inPort):
512 ACLs with 1 security ACE each OR
a combination based on the following rule:
(num ACLs + num security ACEs) <= 512

124 ACLs with 1 security ACE each (one of these ACLs can have 2 ACEs) OR
a combination based on the following rule:
(num ACLs + num ACEs) <= 248
This maximum implies a port member count of 1 for outPort ACLs.
1534 ingress ACEs:
Theoretical maximum of 1534 implies 1 ingress ACL with 1023 security ACEs and 511 QoS ACEs
Ingress ACEs supported: (1024 (security) - # of ACLs) + (512 (QoS) - # of ACLs).
This maximum also implies a VLAN member count of 1 for an inVlan ACL.
247 egress ACEs:
Theoretical maximum of 247 implies 1 egress ACL with 247 security ACEs
Egress ACEs supported: 248 - # of ACLs.
This maximum also implies a port member count of 1 for the outPort ACL.

num ACLs <= 512 && (num ACLs + num Primary ACEs) <= 767 && (num ACLs + num Secondary ACEs) <= (767 – X) where X = num IPv6 ACLs + num IPv6 ACEs
For Primary bank, maximum implies a single port on inPort ACLs, a single I-SID for in VSN, and a single VLAN on inVlan ACLs.
For Secondary bank, inPort ACLs number of consumed rules is not multiplied by the number of ports attached to the ACL.

This maximum implies a single port on inPort ACLs.
254 non-IPv6 egress ACLs (outPort):

IPv6 ingress and IPv6 egress QoS ACL/Filters are not supported. If you disable an ACL, the ACL state affects the administrative state of all of the ACEs within it.

This maximum implies a port member counter of 1 for outPort ACLs.
The switch supports the following maximum limits for ACE scaling:

500 IPv4 egress ACLs
500 IPv4 ingress ACEs
500 IPv4 egress ACEs
The number of private VLANs that you configure with an IP address influences the IPv4 Egress ACE count.
The following table lists scaling limits for Routed Private VLANs/E-TREEs. Limits are not enforced; either number of private VLANs or number of private VLAN trunk ports can go beyond the recommended values.
