Log Filter Entry Commands
action
Syntax action {drop | forward}
no action
Context config>log>filter filter-id>entry entry-id
Description This command specifies a drop or forward action associated with the filter entry.
If neither drop nor forward is specified, the
default-action will be used for traffic that conforms to
the match criteria. This could be considered a No-Op filter entry used to explicitly exit a set of filter
entries without modifying previous actions.
When multiple action commands are entered, the last command will overwrite the previous
command.
The no form of the command removes the specified
action statement.
Default no action
Parameters drop — specifies that packets matching the entry criteria will be dropped
forward — specifies that packets matching the entry criteria will be forwarded
entry
Syntax [no] entry entry-id
Context config>log>filter filter-id
Description This command is used to create or edit an event filter entry. Multiple entries may be created using
unique entry-id numbers. The TiMOS implementation exits the filter on the first match found and
executes the action in accordance with the action command.
Comparisons are performed in an ascending entry ID order. When entries are created, they should be
arranged sequentially from the most explicit entry to the least explicit. Matching ceases when a packet
matches an entry. The entry action is performed on the packet, either drop or forward. To be
considered a match, the packet must meet all the conditions defined in the entry.
An entry may have no match criteria defined (in which case, everything matches) but must have at
least the action keyword for it to be considered complete. Entries without the action keyword will be
considered incomplete and are rendered inactive.
The no form of the command removes the specified entry from the event filter. Entries removed from
the event filter are immediately removed from all log IDs where the filter is applied.
