ipv6 access-list 
	 
 
   
  Creates a standard or extended IPv6 access control list (ACL). In ACLs, you can define rules that permit or deny network traffic based on criteria that you specify.

	 Parameters
 
		 
		   
			 -  
				 
				  standard 
				  | 
				  extended 
				 
			 
- Specifies one of the following types of access lists: 
				 
				   
					 - standard 
					 
- Contains rules that permit or deny traffic based on source addresses that you specify. The rules are applicable to all ports of the specified addresses. 
					 
- extended 
					 
- Contains rules that permit or deny traffic according to source and destination addresses, as well as other parameters. For example, you can also filter by port, protocol (TCP or UDP), and TCP flags. 
					 
 
-  
				 
				  ACLname 
				 
			 
- Specifies an ACL name unique among all ACLs (Layer 2 and Layer 3). The name can be up to 63 characters in length, and must begin with an alphanumeric character. No special characters are allowed, except for the underscore and hyphen. 
			 
Modes
 
		 Global configuration mode 
		
 
	 
 
	 Usage Guidelines
 
		An ACL name can be up to 63 characters long, and must begin with a–z, A–Z or 0–9. You can also use underscore (_) or hyphen (-) in an ACL name, but not as the first character. 
		
 
		 After you create an ACL, use the 
		  seq command to create filtering rules for that ACL. 
		
 
		
			An ACL starts functioning only
					after:
					- Applied to an interface, using the { ip | ipv6 | mac }
							access-group command.
- Applied at device-level, using the { ip | ipv6 } receive
							access-group command.
 To delete an ACL, use the 
		  no access-list command. You can delete an ACL only after you first remove it from all interfaces to which it is applied, using the 
		  no access-group command. 
		
 
	 
Examples
 
	  
		 The following example creates an IPv6 standard ACL: 
		  
device# configure
device(config)# ipv6 access-list standard stdV6ACL1
 
		The following example creates an IPv6 extended ACL: 
		  
device# configure
device(config)# ipv6 access-list extended ipv6_acl_1
 
		The following example creates rules on an IPv6
					standard ACL: 
					
device# configure
device(config)# ipv6 access-list standard stdV6ACL1
device(conf-ipv6-std)# seq 10 permit 2001:db8:85a3:0:0:8a2e:370:7334
device(conf-ipv6-std)# seq 11 deny any
				The following example deletes an IPv6 ACL: 
		  
device# configure
device(config)# no ipv6 access-list standard stdV6ACL1
