• Destination IP Address Value—Enter the IP address to which the destination MAC 
address is matched and its mask (if relevant). 
• Destination IP Prefix Length—Enter the prefix length of the IP address.
• Source Port—Select one of the following:
- Any—Match to all source ports.
- Select from list—Select a single TCP/UDP source port to which packets are 
matched. This field is active only if 800/6-TCP or 800/17-UDP is selected in the IP 
Protocol drop-down menu.
- By number—Enter a single TCP/UDP source port to which packets are matched. 
This field is active only if 800/6-TCP or 800/17-UDP is selected in the IP Protocol 
drop-down menu.
• Destination Port—Select one of the available values. They are the same as for the 
Source Port field described above.
NOTE You must specify the IPv6 protocol for the ACL before you can configure the 
source and/or destination port. 
• Flow Label—Classifies IPv6 traffic based on a IPv6 Flow label field. This is a 20-bit 
field that is part of the IPv6 packet header. An IPv6 flow label can be used by a source 
station to label a set of packets belonging to the same flow. Select Any if all flow labels 
are acceptable or select User defined and then enter a specific flow label to be accepted 
by the ACL.
• TCP Flags—Select one or more TCP flags with which to filter packets. Filtered packets 
are either forwarded or dropped. Filtering packets by TCP flags increases packet 
control, which increases network security. For each type of flag, select one of the 
following options:
- Set—Match if the flag is SET.
- Unset—Match if the flag is Not SET.
- Don’t care—Ignore the TCP flag.
• Type of Service—The service type of the IP packet.
- Any—Any service type
- DSCP to Match—Differentiated Serves Code Point (DSCP) to match
