Configuring OSPF
6
The acl-name | acl-id parameter specifies the ACL name or ID.
The in command applies the ACL to incoming route updates.
The interface type parameter identifies the interface type (i.e., e (ethernet) or ve (virtual)) on which
to apply the ACL.
The interface number parameter specifies the interface number on which to apply the ACL. Enter
only one valid interface number. If necessary, use the show interface brief command to display a
list of valid interfaces. If you do not specify an interface, the Brocade device applies the ACL to all
incoming route updates.
If you do not specify an interface type and interface number, the device applies the OSPF
distribution list to all incoming route updates.
The deny | permit parameter indicates whether packets that match the policy are dropped or
forwarded.
The source-ip parameter specifies the source address for the policy. Since this ACL is input to an
OSPF distribution list, the source-ip parameter actually is specifying the destination network of the
route.
The wildcard parameter specifies the portion of the source address to match against. The wildcard
is a four-part value in dotted-decimal notation (IP address format) consisting of ones and zeros.
Zeros in the mask mean the packet’s source address must match the source-ip. Ones mean any
value matches. For example, the source-ip and wildcard values 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 mean
that all 10.x.x.x networks match the ACL.
If you want the policy to match on all destination networks, enter any any.
If you prefer to specify the wildcard (mask value) in Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) format,
you can enter a forward slash after the IP address, then enter the number of significant bits in the
mask. For example, you can enter the CIDR equivalent of “10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255” as
“10.0.0.0/8”. The CLI automatically converts the CIDR number into the appropriate ACL mask
(where zeros instead of ones are the significant bits) and changes the non-significant portion of the
IP address into zeros.
NOTE
If you enable the software to display IP subnet masks in CIDR format, the mask is saved in the file in
“/mask-bits” format. To enable the software to display the CIDR masks, enter the ip
show-subnet-length command at the global CONFIG level of the CLI. You can use the CIDR format to
configure the ACL entry regardless of whether the software is configured to display the masks in
CIDR format.
If you use the CIDR format, the ACL entries appear in this format in the running-config and
startup-config files, but are shown with subnet mask in the display produced by the show ip
access-list command.
Using an extended ACL as input to the distribution list
To use an extended ACL to configure an OSPF distribution list for denying specific routes, enter
commands such as the following.
