IP Services Commands
Use the commands in this chapter to configure various IP services. For configuration information and examples on IP services, refer to the "Configuring IP Services" chapter of the Cisco IOS IP and IP Routing Configuration Guide.
access-class
To restrict incoming and outgoing connections between a particular virtual terminal line (into a Cisco device) and the addresses in an access list, use the access-class line configuration command. To remove access restrictions, use the no form of this command.
access-class access-list-number {in | out}
no access-class access-list-number {in | out}
Syntax Description
access-list-number
|
Number of an IP access list. This is a decimal number from 1 to 199 or from 1300 to 2699.
|
in
|
Restricts incoming connections between a particular Cisco device and the addresses in the access list.
|
out
|
Restricts outgoing connections between a particular Cisco device and the addresses in the access list.

Usage Guidelines
Remember to set identical restrictions on all the virtual terminal lines because a user can connect to any of them.
To display the access lists for a particular terminal line, use the show line EXEC command and specify the line number.
Examples
The following example defines an access list that permits only hosts on network 192.89.55.0 to connect to the virtual terminal ports on the router:
access-list 12 permit 192.89.55.0 0.0.0.255
The following example defines an access list that denies connections to networks other than network 36.0.0.0 on terminal lines 1 through 5:
access-list 10 permit 36.0.0.0 0.255.255.255

Syntax Description
access-list-number
|
Number of an access list. This is a decimal number from 100 to 199 or from 2000 to 2699.
|
dynamic dynamic-name
|
(Optional) Identifies this access list as a dynamic access list. Refer to lock-and-key access documented in the "Configuring Lock-and-Key Security (Dynamic Access Lists)" chapter in the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide.
|
timeout minutes
|
(Optional) Specifies the absolute length of time (in minutes) that a temporary access list entry can remain in a dynamic access list. The default is an infinite length of time and allows an entry to remain permanently. Refer to lock-and-key access documented in the "Configuring Lock-and-Key Security (Dynamic Access Lists)" chapter in the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide.
|
deny
|
Denies access if the conditions are matched.
|
permit
|
Permits access if the conditions are matched.
|
protocol
|
Name or number of an IP protocol. It can be one of the keywords eigrp, gre, icmp, igmp, igrp, ip, ipinip, nos, ospf, pim, tcp, or udp, or an integer in the range 0 to 255 representing an IP protocol number. To match any Internet protocol (including ICMP, TCP, and UDP) use the keyword ip. Some protocols allow further qualifiers described below.
|
source
|
Number of the network or host from which the packet is being sent. There are three alternative ways to specify the source:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host source as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of source 0.0.0.0.
|
source-wildcard
|
Wildcard bits to be applied to source. Each wildcard bit set to zero indicates that the corresponding bit position in the packet's ip address must exactly match the bit value in the corresponding bit position in the source. Each wildcard bit set to one indicates that both a zero bit and a one bit in the corresponding position of the packet's ip address will be considered a match to this access list entry.
There are three alternative ways to specify the source wildcard:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions you want to ignore. For example, 0.0.255.255 to require an exact match of only the first 16 bits of the source.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host source as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of source 0.0.0.0.
Wildcard bits set to one do not need to be contiguous in the source-wildcard. For example, a source-wildcard of 0.255.0.64 would be valid.
|
destination
|
Number of the network or host to which the packet is being sent. There are three alternative ways to specify the destination:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for the destination and destination-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host destination as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0.
|
destination-wildcard
|
Wildcard bits to be applied to the destination. There are three alternative ways to specify the destination wildcard:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions you want to ignore.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host destination as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0.
|
precedence precedence
|
(Optional) Packets can be filtered by precedence level, as specified by a number from 0 to 7 or by name as listed in the section "Usage Guidelines."
|
tos tos
|
(Optional) Packets can be filtered by type of service level, as specified by a number from 0 to 15 or by name as listed in the section "Usage Guidelines."
|
icmp-type
|
(Optional) ICMP packets can be filtered by ICMP message type. The type is a number from 0 to 255.
|
log
|
(Optional) Causes an informational logging message about the packet that matches the entry to be sent to the console. (The level of messages logged to the console is controlled by the logging console command.)
The message includes the access list number, whether the packet was permitted or denied; the protocol, whether it was TCP, UDP, ICMP or a number; and, if appropriate, the source and destination addresses and source and destination port numbers. The message is generated for the first packet that matches, and then at 5-minute intervals, including the number of packets permitted or denied in the prior 5-minute interval.
Use the ip access-list log-update command to generate logging messages when the number of matches reaches a configurable threshold (rather than waiting for a 5-minute interval). See the ip access-list log-update command for more information.
The logging facility might drop some logging message packets if there are too many to be handled or if there is more than one logging message to be handled in 1 second. This behavior prevents the router from crashing due to too many logging packets. Therefore, the logging facility should not be used as a billing tool or an accurate source of the number of matches to an access list.
If you enable CEF and then create an access list that uses the log keyword, the packets that match the access list are not CEF switched. They are fast switched. Logging disables CEF.
|
log-input
|
(Optional) Includes the input interface and source MAC address or VC in the logging output.
|
time-range time-range-name
|
(Optional) Name of the time range that applies to this statement. The name of the time range and its restrictions are specified by the time-range command.
|
icmp-code
|
(Optional) ICMP packets that are filtered by ICMP message type can also be filtered by the ICMP message code. The code is a number from 0 to 255.
|
icmp-message
|
(Optional) ICMP packets can be filtered by an ICMP message type name or ICMP message type and code name. The possible names are listed in the section "Usage Guidelines."
|
igmp-type
|
(Optional) IGMP packets can be filtered by IGMP message type or message name. A message type is a number from 0 to 15. IGMP message names are listed in the section "Usage Guidelines."
|
operator
|
(Optional) Compares source or destination ports. Possible operands include lt (less than), gt (greater than), eq (equal), neq (not equal), and range (inclusive range).
If the operator is positioned after the source and source-wildcard, it must match the source port.
If the operator is positioned after the destination and destination-wildcard, it must match the destination port.
The range operator requires two port numbers. All other operators require one port number.
|
port
|
(Optional) The decimal number or name of a TCP or UDP port. A port number is a number from 0 to 65535. TCP port names are listed in the section "Usage Guidelines." TCP port names can only be used when filtering TCP. UDP port names are listed in the section "Usage Guidelines." UDP port names can only be used when filtering UDP.
TCP port names can only be used when filtering TCP. UDP port names can only be used when filtering UDP.
|
established
|
(Optional) For the TCP protocol only: Indicates an established connection. A match occurs if the TCP datagram has the ACK, FIN, PSH, RST, SYN, or URG control bits set. The nonmatching case is that of the initial TCP datagram to form a connection.
|
fragments
|
(Optional) The access list entry applies to noninitial fragments of packets; the fragment is either permitted or denied accordingly. For more details about the fragments keyword, see the "Access List Processing of Fragments" and "Fragments and Policy Routing" sections in the "Usage Guidelines" section.
|
Defaults
An extended access list defaults to a list that denies everything. An extended access list is terminated by an implicit deny statement.

Usage Guidelines
You can use access lists to control the transmission of packets on an interface, control virtual terminal line access, and restrict contents of routing updates. The Cisco IOS software stops checking the extended access list after a match occurs.
Note
After a numbered access list is created initially, any subsequent additions (possibly entered from the terminal) are placed at the end of the list. In other words, you cannot selectively add or remove access list command lines from a specific numbered access list.

Access List Processing of Fragments
The behavior of access-list entries regarding the use or lack of the fragments keyword can be summarized as follows:
If the Access-List Entry has...
|
Then..
|
...no fragments keyword (the default behavior), and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
For an access-list entry containing only Layer 3 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets, initial fragments and noninitial fragments.
For an access list entry containing Layer 3 and Layer 4 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets and initial fragments.
– If the entry is a permit statement, the packet or fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the packet or fragment is denied.
• The entry is also applied to noninitial fragments in the following manner. Because noninitial fragments contain only Layer 3 information, only the Layer 3 portion of an access-list entry can be applied. If the Layer 3 portion of the access-list entry matches, and
– If the entry is a permit statement, the noninitial fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the next access-list entry is processed.
Note The deny statements are handled differently for noninitial fragments versus nonfragmented or initial fragments.
|
...the fragments keyword, and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
The access-list entry is applied only to noninitial fragments.
Note The fragments keyword cannot be configured for an access-list entry that contains any Layer 4 information.
|
Be aware that you should not simply add the fragments keyword to every access list entry because the first fragment of the IP packet is considered a nonfragment and is treated independently of the subsequent fragments. An initial fragment will not match an access list permit or deny entry that contains the fragments keyword, the packet is compared to the next access list entry, and so on, until it is either permitted or denied by an access list entry that does not contain the fragments keyword. Therefore, you may need two access list entries for every deny entry. The first deny entry of the pair will not include the fragments keyword, and applies to the initial fragment. The second deny entry of the pair will include the fragments keyword and applies to the subsequent fragments. In the cases where there are multiple deny access list entries for the same host but with different Layer 4 ports, a single deny access-list entry with the fragments keyword for that host is all that needs to be added. Thus all the fragments of a packet are handled in the same manner by the access list.
Packet fragments of IP datagrams are considered individual packets and each counts individually as a packet in access list accounting and access list violation counts.
Note
The fragments keyword cannot solve all cases involving access lists and IP fragments.
Fragments and Policy Routing
Fragmentation and the fragment control feature affect policy routing if the policy routing is based on the match ip address command and the access list had entries that match on Layer 4 through 7 information. It is possible that noninitial fragments pass the access list and are policy routed, even if the first fragment was not policy routed or the reverse.
By using the fragments keyword in access list entries as described earlier, a better match between the action taken for initial and noninitial fragments can be made and it is more likely policy routing will occur as intended.
Examples
In the following example, serial interface 0 is part of a Class B network with the address 128.88.0.0, and the mail host's address is 128.88.1.2. The established keyword is used only for the TCP protocol to indicate an established connection. A match occurs if the TCP datagram has the ACK or RST bits set, which indicate that the packet belongs to an existing connection.
access-list 102 permit tcp 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255 established
access-list 102 permit tcp 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 128.88.1.2 0.0.0.0 eq 25
The following example also permits Domain Naming System (DNS) packets and ICMP echo and echo reply packets:
access-list 102 permit tcp any 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255 established
access-list 102 permit tcp any host 128.88.1.2 eq smtp
access-list 102 permit tcp any any eq domain
access-list 102 permit udp any any eq domain
access-list 102 permit icmp any any echo
access-list 102 permit icmp any any echo-reply
The following examples show how wildcard bits are used to indicate the bits of the prefix or mask that are relevant. They are similar to the bitmasks that are used with normal access lists. Prefix/mask bits corresponding to wildcard bits set to 1 are ignored during comparisons and prefix/mask bits corresponding to wildcard bits set to 0 are used in comparison.
The following example permits 192.108.0.0 255.255.0.0 but denies any more specific routes of 192.108.0.0 (including 192.108.0.0 255.255.255.0):
access-list 101 permit ip 192.108.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 0.0.0.0
access-list 101 deny ip 192.108.0.0 0.0.255.255 255.255.0.0 0.0.255.255
The following example permits 131.108.0/24 but denies 131.108/16 and all other subnets of 131.108.0.0:
access-list 101 permit ip 131.108.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
access-list 101 deny ip 131.108.0.0 0.0.255.255 255.255.0.0 0.0.255.255
The following example uses a time-range to deny HTTP traffic on Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.:
periodic weekdays 8:00 to 18:00
access-list 101 deny tcp any any eq http time-range no-http

Caution 
Enhancements to this command are backward compatible; migrating from releases prior to Release 10.3 will convert your access lists automatically. However, releases prior to Release 10.3 are not upwardly compatible with these enhancements. Therefore, if you save an access list with these images and then use software prior to Release 10.3, the resulting access list will not be interpreted correctly.
This could cause you severe security problems. Save your old configuration file before booting these images.

Usage Guidelines
Plan your access conditions carefully and be aware of the implicit deny statement at the end of the access list.
You can use access lists to control the transmission of packets on an interface, control virtual terminal line access, and restrict the contents of routing updates.
Use the show access-lists EXEC command to display the contents of all access lists.
Use the show ip access-list EXEC command to display the contents of one access list.
Examples
The following example of a standard access list allows access for only those hosts on the three specified networks. The wildcard bits apply to the host portions of the network addresses. Any host with a source address that does not match the access list statements will be rejected.
access-list 1 permit 192.5.34.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 1 permit 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255
access-list 1 permit 36.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
! (Note: all other access implicitly denied)
The following example of a standard access list allows access for devices with IP addresses in the range 10.29.2.64 to 10.29.2.127. All packets with a source address not in this range will be rejected.
access-list 1 permit 10.29.2.64 0.0.0.63
! (Note: all other access implicitly denied)
To specify a large number of individual addresses more easily, you can omit the wildcard if it is all zeros. Thus, the following two configuration commands are identical in effect:
access-list 2 permit 36.48.0.3
access-list 2 permit 36.48.0.3 0.0.0.0

Syntax Description
source
|
Number of the network or host from which the packet is being sent. There are three alternative ways to specify the source:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host source as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of source 0.0.0.0.
|
source-wildcard
|
Wildcard bits to be applied to the source. There are three alternative ways to specify the source wildcard:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions you want to ignore.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host source as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of source 0.0.0.0.
|
protocol
|
Name or number of an IP protocol. It can be one of the keywords eigrp, gre, icmp, igmp, igrp, ip, ipinip, nos, ospf, tcp, or udp, or an integer in the range 0 to 255 representing an IP protocol number. To match any Internet protocol (including ICMP, TCP, and UDP), use the keyword ip. Some protocols allow further qualifiers described later.
|
destination
|
Number of the network or host to which the packet is being sent. There are three alternative ways to specify the destination:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for the destination and destination-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host destination as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0.
|
destination-wildcard
|
Wildcard bits to be applied to the destination. There are three alternative ways to specify the destination wildcard:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions you want to ignore.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host destination as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0.
|
precedence precedence
|
(Optional) Packets can be filtered by precedence level, as specified by a number from 0 to 7 or by name as listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section.
|
tos tos
|
(Optional) Packets can be filtered by type of service level, as specified by a number from 0 to 15 or by name as listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (extended) command.
|
log
|
(Optional) Causes an informational logging message about the packet that matches the entry to be sent to the console. (The level of messages logged to the console is controlled by the logging console command.)
The message includes the access list number, whether the packet was permitted or denied; the protocol, whether it was TCP, UDP, ICMP or a number; and, if appropriate, the source and destination addresses and source and destination port numbers. The message is generated for the first packet that matches, and then at 5-minute intervals, including the number of packets permitted or denied in the prior 5-minute interval.
Use the ip access-list log-update command to generate logging messages when the number of matches reaches a configurable threshold (rather than waiting for a 5-minute interval). See the ip access-list log-update command for more information.
The logging facility might drop some logging message packets if there are too many to be handled or if there is more than one logging message to be handled in 1 second. This behavior prevents the router from crashing due to too many logging packets. Therefore, the logging facility should not be used as a billing tool or an accurate source of the number of matches to an access list.
If you enable CEF and then create an access list that uses the log keyword, the packets that match the access list are not CEF switched. They are fast switched. Logging disables CEF.
|
time-range time-range-name
|
(Optional) Name of the time range that applies to this deny statement. The name of the time range and its restrictions are specified by the time-range and absolute or periodic commands, respectively.
|
icmp-type
|
(Optional) ICMP packets can be filtered by ICMP message type. The type is a number from 0 to 255.
|
icmp-code
|
(Optional) ICMP packets which are filtered by ICMP message type can also be filtered by the ICMP message code. The code is a number from 0 to 255.
|
icmp-message
|
(Optional) ICMP packets can be filtered by an ICMP message type name or ICMP message type and code name. The possible names are listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (extended) command.
|
igmp-type
|
(Optional) IGMP packets can be filtered by IGMP message type or message name. A message type is a number from 0 to 15. IGMP message names are listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (extended) command.
|
operator
|
(Optional) Compares source or destination ports. Possible operands include lt (less than), gt (greater than), eq (equal), neq (not equal), and range (inclusive range).
If the operator is positioned after the source and source-wildcard, it must match the source port.
If the operator is positioned after the destination and destination-wildcard, it must match the destination port.
The range operator requires two port numbers. All other operators require one port number.
|
port
|
(Optional) The decimal number or name of a TCP or UDP port. A port number is a number from 0 to 65535. TCP and UDP port names are listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (extended) command. TCP port names can only be used when filtering TCP. UDP port names can only be used when filtering UDP.
|
established
|
(Optional) For the TCP protocol only: Indicates an established connection. A match occurs if the TCP datagram has the ACK or RST bits set. The nonmatching case is that of the initial TCP datagram to form a connection.
|
fragments
|
(Optional) The access list entry applies to noninitial fragments of packets; the fragment is either permitted or denied accordingly. For more details about the fragments keyword, see the "Access List Processing of Fragments" and "Fragments and Policy Routing" sections in the "Usage Guidelines" section.

12.0(1)T
|

|
12.1(2)
|
The fragments keyword was added.
|
Usage Guidelines
Use this command following the ip access-list command to specify conditions under which a packet cannot pass the named access list.
The time-range option allows you to identify a time range by name. The time-range, absolute, and periodic commands specify when this deny statement is in effect.
A ccess List Processing of Fragments
The behavior of access-list entries regarding the use or lack of the fragments keyword can be summarized as follows:
If the Access-List Entry has...
|
Then..
|
...no fragments keyword (the default behavior), and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
For an access-list entry containing only Layer 3 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets, initial fragments and noninitial fragments.
For an access list entry containing Layer 3 and Layer 4 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets and initial fragments.
– If the entry is a permit statement, the packet or fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the packet or fragment is denied.
• The entry is also applied to noninitial fragments in the following manner. Because noninitial fragments contain only Layer 3 information, only the Layer 3 portion of an access-list entry can be applied. If the Layer 3 portion of the access-list entry matches, and
– If the entry is a permit statement, the noninitial fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the next access-list entry is processed.
Note The deny statements are handled differently for noninitial fragments versus nonfragmented or initial fragments.
|
...the fragments keyword, and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
Note The access-list entry is applied only to noninitial fragments.The fragments keyword cannot be configured for an access-list entry that contains any Layer 4 information.
|
Be aware that you should not simply add the fragments keyword to every access list entry because the first fragment of the IP packet is considered a nonfragment and is treated independently of the subsequent fragments. An initial fragment will not match an access list permit or deny entry that contains the fragments keyword, the packet is compared to the next access list entry, and so on, until it is either permitted or denied by an access list entry that does not contain the fragments keyword. Therefore, you may need two access list entries for every deny entry. The first deny entry of the pair will not include the fragments keyword, and applies to the initial fragment. The second deny entry of the pair will include the fragments keyword and applies to the subsequent fragments. In the cases where there are multiple deny access list entries for the same host but with different Layer 4 ports, a single deny access-list entry with the fragments keyword for that host is all that needs to be added. Thus all the fragments of a packet are handled in the same manner by the access list.
Packet fragments of IP datagrams are considered individual packets and each counts individually as a packet in access list accounting and access list violation counts.
Note
The fragments keyword cannot solve all cases involving access lists and IP fragments.
Fragments and Policy Routing
Fragmentation and the fragment control feature affect policy routing if the policy routing is based on the match ip address command and the access list had entries that match on Layer 4 through 7 information. It is possible that noninitial fragments pass the access list and are policy routed, even if the first fragment was not policy routed or the reverse.
By using the fragments keyword in access list entries as described earlier, a better match between the action taken for initial and noninitial fragments can be made and it is more likely policy routing will occur as intended.
Examples
The following example sets a deny condition for a standard access list named Internetfilter:
ip access-list standard Internetfilter
deny 192.5.34.0 0.0.0.255
permit 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255
permit 36.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
! (Note: all other access implicitly denied)
The following example denies HTTP traffic on Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 am and 6:00 p.m.:
periodic weekdays 8:00 to 18:00
ip access-list extended strict
deny tcp any any eq http time-range no-http
ip access-group strict in

Access List Processing of Fragments
The behavior of access-list entries regarding the use or lack of the fragments keyword can be summarized as follows:
If the Access-List Entry has...
|
Then..
|
...no fragments keyword (the default behavior), and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
For an access-list entry containing only Layer 3 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets, initial fragments and noninitial fragments.
For an access list entry containing Layer 3 and Layer 4 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets and initial fragments.
– If the entry is a permit statement, the packet or fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the packet or fragment is denied.
• The entry is also applied to noninitial fragments in the following manner. Because noninitial fragments contain only Layer 3 information, only the Layer 3 portion of an access-list entry can be applied. If the Layer 3 portion of the access-list entry matches, and
– If the entry is a permit statement, the noninitial fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the next access-list entry is processed.
Note The deny statements are handled differently for noninitial fragments versus nonfragmented or initial fragments.
|
...the fragments keyword, and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
Note The access-list entry is applied only to noninitial fragments.The fragments keyword cannot be configured for an access-list entry that contains any Layer 4 information.
|
Be aware that you should not simply add the fragments keyword to every access list entry because the first fragment of the IP packet is considered a nonfragment and is treated independently of the subsequent fragments. An initial fragment will not match an access list permit or deny entry that contains the fragments keyword, the packet is compared to the next access list entry, and so on, until it is either permitted or denied by an access list entry that does not contain the fragments keyword. Therefore, you may need two access list entries for every deny entry. The first deny entry of the pair will not include the fragments keyword, and applies to the initial fragment. The second deny entry of the pair will include the fragments keyword and applies to the subsequent fragments. In the cases where there are multiple deny access list entries for the same host but with different Layer 4 ports, a single deny access-list entry with the fragments keyword for that host is all that needs to be added. Thus all the fragments of a packet are handled in the same manner by the access list.
Packet fragments of IP datagrams are considered individual packets and each counts individually as a packet in access list accounting and access list violation counts.
Note
The fragments keyword cannot solve all cases involving access lists and IP fragments.
Fragments and Policy Routing
Fragmentation and the fragment control feature affect policy routing if the policy routing is based on the match ip address command and the access list had entries that match on Layer 4 through 7 information. It is possible that noninitial fragments pass the access list and are policy routed, even if the first fragment was not policy routed or the reverse.
By using the fragments keyword in access list entries as described earlier, a better match between the action taken for initial and noninitial fragments can be made and it is more likely policy routing will occur as intended.

ip access-group washington in

Usage Guidelines
Access lists are applied on either outbound or inbound interfaces. For standard inbound access lists, after receiving a packet, the Cisco IOS software checks the source address of the packet against the access list. For extended access lists, the router also checks the destination access list. If the access list permits the address, the software continues to process the packet. If the access list rejects the address, the software discards the packet and returns an ICMP Host Unreachable message.
For standard outbound access lists, after receiving and routing a packet to a controlled interface, the software checks the source address of the packet against the access list. For extended access lists, the router also checks the destination access list. If the access list permits the address, the software sends the packet. If the access list rejects the address, the software discards the packet and returns an ICMP Host Unreachable message.
If the specified access list does not exist, all packets are passed.
When you enable outbound access lists, you automatically disable autonomous switching for that interface.When you enable input access lists on any cBus or CxBus interface, you automatically disable autonomous switching for all interfaces (with one exception—an SSE configured with simple access lists can still switch packets, on output only).
Examples
The following example applies list 101 on packets outbound from Ethernet interface 0:

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure a named IP access list as opposed to a numbered IP access list. This command will take you into access-list configuration mode, where you must define the denied or permitted access conditions with the deny and permit commands.
Specifying the standard or extended keyword with the ip access-list command determines the prompt you get when you enter access-list configuration mode.
Use the ip access-group command to apply the access-list to an interface.
Named access lists are not compatible with Cisco IOS releases prior to Release 11.2.
Examples
The following example defines a standard access list named Internetfilter:

|
This command was introduced.
|
Usage Guidelines
Log messages are generated if you have specified the log keyword in the access-list (IP standard), access-list (IP extended), deny (IP), dynamic, or permit command.
Log messages provide information about the packets that are permitted or denied by an access list. By default, log messages appear at the console. (The level of messages logged to the console is controlled by the logging console command.) The log message includes the access list number, whether the packet was permitted or denied, and other information.
By default, the log messages are sent at the first matching packet and after that, identical messages are accumulated for 5-minute intervals, with a single message being sent with the number of packets permitted and denied during that interval. However, you can use the ip access-list log-update command to set the number of packets that, when match an access list (and are permitted or denied), cause the system to generate a log message. You might want to do this to receive log messages more frequently than at 5-minute intervals.
Caution 
If you set the
number-of-matches argument to 1, a log message is sent right away, rather than caching it; every packet that matches an access list causes a log message. A setting of 1 is not recommended because the volume of log messages could overwhelm the system.
Even if you use the ip access-list log-update command, the 5-minute timer remains in effect, so the cache is emptied at the end of 5 minutes, regardless of the count of messages in the cache. Regardless of when the log message is sent, the cache is flushed and the count reset to 0 for that message the same way it is when a threshold is not specified.
If the syslog server is not directly connected to a LAN that the router shares, any intermediate router might drop the log messages because they are UDP (unreliable) messages.
Examples
The following example enables logging whenever the 1000th packet matches an access list entry:
ip access-list log-update threshold 1000

|

|
Usage Guidelines
The IP accounting command records the number of bytes (IP header and data) and packets switched through the system on a source and destination IP address basis. Only transit IP traffic is measured and only on an outbound basis; traffic generated by the router access server or terminating in this device is not included in the accounting statistics. Traffic coming from a remote site and transiting through a router is also recorded.
If you specify the access-violations keyword, the ip accounting command provides information identifying IP traffic that fails IP access lists. Identifying IP source addresses that violate IP access lists alerts you to possible attempts to breach security. The data might also indicate that you should verify IP access list configurations.
To receive a logging message on the console when an extended access list entry denies a packet access (to log violations), you must include the log keyword in the access-list (IP extended) or access-list (IP standard) command.
Statistics are accurate even if IP fast switching or IP access lists are being used on the interface.
IP accounting disables autonomous switching, SSE switching, and distributed switching (dCEF) on the interface. IP accounting will cause packets to be switched on the Route Switch Processor (RSP) instead of the Versatile Interface Processor (VIP), which can cause performance degradation.
Examples
The following example enables IP accounting on Ethernet interface 0:

The accounting threshold defines the maximum number of entries (source and destination address pairs) that the software accumulates, preventing IP accounting from possibly consuming all available free memory. This level of memory consumption could occur in a router that is switching traffic for many hosts. Overflows will be recorded; see the monitoring commands for display formats.
The default accounting threshold of 512 entries results in a maximum table size of 12,928 bytes. Active and checkpointed tables can reach this size independently.

Usage Guidelines
The no ip icmp rate-limit unreachable command turns off the previously configured rate limit. To re-set the rate limit to its default value, use the default ip icmp rate-limit unreachable command.
The Cisco IOS software maintains two timers: one for general destination unreachable messages and one for DF destination unreachable messages. Both share the same time limits and defaults. If the df option is not configured, the ip icmp rate-limit unreachable command sets the time values for DF destination unreachable messages. If the df option is configured, its time values remain independent from those of general destination unreachable messages.
Examples
The following example sets the rate of the ICMP destination unreachable message to one message every 10 milliseconds:
ip icmp rate-limit unreachable 10

|
Usage Guidelines
An ICMP redirect message can be generated by a router when a packet is received and transmitted on the same interface. In this situation, the router will forward the original packet and send a ICMP redirect message back to the sender of the original packet. This behavior allows the sender to bypass the router and forward future packets directly to the destination (or a router closer to the destination).
There are two types of ICMP redirect messages: redirect for a host address or redirect for an entire subnet.
The ip icmp redirect command determines the type of ICMP redirects sent by the system and is configured on a per system basis. Some hosts do not understand ICMP subnet redirects and need the router to send out ICMP host redirects. Use the ip icmp redirect host command to have the router send out ICMP host redirects. Use the ip icmp redirect subnet command to set the value back to the default, which is to send subnet redirects.
To prevent the router from sending ICMP redirects, use the no ip redirects interface configuration command.
Examples
The following example enables the router to send out ICMP host redirects:

Usage Guidelines
If an IP packet exceeds the MTU set for the interface, the Cisco IOS software will fragment it.
All devices on a physical medium must have the same protocol MTU in order to operate.
Note
Changing the MTU value (with the mtu interface configuration command) can affect the IP MTU value. If the current IP MTU value is the same as the MTU value, and you change the MTU value, the IP MTU value will be modified automatically to match the new MTU. However, the reverse is not true; changing the IP MTU value has no effect on the value for the mtu command.
Examples
The following example sets the maximum IP packet size for the first serial interface to 300 bytes:

For Frame Relay, PPP, and High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) encapsulation, the maximum number of compression connections increased to 256. For Frame Relay, the maximum value is fixed, not configurable.
|
Usage Guidelines
You should configure one connection for each TCP connection through the specified interface.
Each connection sets up a compression cache entry, so you are in effect specifying the maximum number of cache entries and the size of the cache. Too few cache entries for the specified interface can lead to degraded performance, while too many cache entries can lead to wasted memory.
Note
Both ends of the serial connection must use the same number of cache entries.
Examples
The following example sets the first serial interface for header compression with a maximum of ten cache entries:
ip tcp header-compression
ip tcp compression-connections 10

Usage Guidelines
You can compress the headers of your TCP/IP packets in order to reduce the size of your packets. TCP header compression is supported on serial lines using Frame Relay, HDLC or Point-to-Point (PPP) encapsulation. You must enable compression on both ends of a serial connection. RFC 1144 specifies the compression process. Compressing the TCP header can speed up Telnet connections dramatically. In general, TCP header compression is advantageous when your traffic consists of many small packets, not for traffic that consists of large packets. Transaction processing (usually using terminals) tends to use small packets while file transfers use large packets. This feature only compresses the TCP header, so it has no effect on UDP packets or other protocol headers.
When compression is enabled, fast switching is disabled. This means that fast interfaces like T1 can overload the router. Consider your network's traffic characteristics before using this command.
Examples
The following example sets the first serial interface for header compression with a maximum of ten cache entries:
ip tcp header-compression
ip tcp compression-connections 10

|
Usage Guidelines
If this command is not enabled, the MSS value of 536 bytes is used if the destination is not on a LAN, otherwise the MSS value is 1460 for a local destination.
For connections originating from a router, the specified value is used directly as an MSS option in the synchronize (SYN) segment. For connections terminating on a router, the value is used only if the incoming SYN segment has an MSS option value higher than the configured value. Otherwise the incoming value is used as the MSS option in the SYN/acknowledge (ACK) segment.
Note
The ip tcp mss command interacts with the ip tcp path-mtu-discovery command and not the ip tcp header-compression command. The ip tcp path-mtu-discovery command changes the default MSS to 1460 even for non-local nodes.
Examples
The following example sets the MSS value at 250:

|
Usage Guidelines
Path MTU Discovery is a method for maximizing the use of available bandwidth in the network between the end points of a TCP connection. It is described in RFC 1191. Existing connections are not affected when this feature is turned on or off.
Customers using TCP connections to move bulk data between systems on distinct subnets would benefit most by enabling this feature. This might include customers using RSRB with TCP encapsulation, STUN, X.25 Remote Switching (also known as XOT, or X.25 over TCP), and some protocol translation configurations.
The age timer is a time interval for how often TCP re-estimates the Path MTU with a larger MSS. By using the age timer, TCP Path MTU becomes a dynamic process. If MSS used for the connection is smaller than what the peer connection can handle, a larger MSS is tried every time the age timer expires. The discovery process is stopped when either the send MSS is as large as the peer negotiated, or the user has disabled the timer on the router. You can turn off the age-timer by setting it to infinite.
Examples
The following example enables Path MTU Discovery:
ip tcp path-mtu-discovery

|

|
Usage Guidelines
TCP might not experience optimal performance if multiple packets are lost from one window of data. With the limited information available from cumulative acknowledgments, a TCP sender can learn about only one lost packet per round trip time. An aggressive sender could re-send packets early, but such re-sent segments might have already been successfully received.
The TCP selective acknowledgment mechanism helps overcome these limitations. The receiving TCP returns selective acknowledgment packets to the sender, informing the sender about data that has been received. The sender can then re-send only the missing data segments.
TCP selective acknowledgment improves overall performance. The feature is used only when multiple packets drop from a TCP window. There is no performance impact when the feature is enabled but not used.
This command becomes effective only on new TCP connections opened after the feature is enabled.
This feature must be disabled if you want TCP header compression. You might disable this feature if you have severe TCP problems.
Refer to RFC 2018 for more detailed information on TCP selective acknowledgment.
Examples
The following example enables the router to send and receive TCP selective acknowledgments:

|
Usage Guidelines
In versions previous to Cisco IOS software 10.0, the system would wait a fixed 30 seconds when attempting to establish a TCP connection. If your network contains Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) dial-on-demand routing (DDR), the call setup time may exceed 30 seconds. This amount of time is not sufficient in networks that have dial-up asynchronous connections because it will affect your ability to Telnet over the link (from the router) if the link must be brought up. If you have this type of network, you might want to set this value to the UNIX value of 75.
Because this is a host parameter, it does not pertain to traffic going through the router, just for traffic originated at this device. Because UNIX has a fixed 75-second timeout, hosts are unlikely to see this problem.
Examples
The following example configures the Cisco IOS software to continue attempting to establish a TCP connection for 180 seconds:

If the Cisco IOS software receives a nonbroadcast packet destined for itself that uses a protocol it does not recognize, it sends an ICMP Protocol Unreachable message to the source.
If the software receives a datagram that it cannot deliver to its ultimate destination because it knows of no route to the destination address, it replies to the originator of that datagram with an ICMP Host Unreachable message.
This command affects all kinds of ICMP unreachable messages.
Examples
The following example enables the generation of ICMP Unreachable messages, as appropriate, on an interface:

User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
For UDP, you can also use the following syntax:
permit udp source source-wildcard [operator [port]] destination destination-wildcard [operator [port]] [precedence precedence] [tos tos] [log] [time-range time-range-name] [fragments]
Syntax Description
source
|
Number of the network or host from which the packet is being sent. There are three alternative ways to specify the source:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host source as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of source 0.0.0.0.
|
source-wildcard
|
Wildcard bits to be applied to source. There are three alternative ways to specify the source wildcard:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions you want to ignore.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host source as an abbreviation for a source and source-wildcard of source 0.0.0.0.
|
protocol
|
Name or number of an IP protocol. It can be one of the keywords eigrp, gre, icmp, igmp, igrp, ip, ipinip, nos, ospf, tcp, or udp, or an integer in the range 0 to 255 representing an IP protocol number. To match any Internet protocol (including ICMP, TCP, and UDP), use the keyword ip. Some protocols allow further qualifiers described later.
|
destination
|
Number of the network or host to which the packet is being sent. There are three alternative ways to specify the destination:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for the destination and destination-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host destination as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0.
|
destination-wildcard
|
Wildcard bits to be applied to the destination. There are three alternative ways to specify the destination wildcard:
• Use a 32-bit quantity in four-part, dotted-decimal format. Place ones in the bit positions you want to ignore.
• Use the keyword any as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255.
• Use host destination as an abbreviation for a destination and destination-wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0.

precedence precedence
|
(Optional) Packets can be filtered by precedence level, as specified by a number from 0 to 7 or by name as listed in the section "Usage Guidelines."
|
tos tos
|
(Optional) Packets can be filtered by type of service level, as specified by a number from 0 to 15 or by name as listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (IP extended) command.
|
log
|
(Optional) Causes an informational logging message about the packet that matches the entry to be sent to the console. (The level of messages logged to the console is controlled by the logging console command.)
The message includes the access list number, whether the packet was permitted or denied; the protocol, whether it was TCP, UDP, ICMP or a number; and, if appropriate, the source and destination addresses and source and destination port numbers. The message is generated for the first packet that matches, and then at 5-minute intervals, including the number of packets permitted or denied in the prior 5-minute interval.
Use the ip access-list log-update command to generate logging messages when the number of matches reaches a configurable threshold (rather than waiting for a 5-minute interval). See the ip access-list log-update command for more information.
The logging facility might drop some logging message packets if there are too many to be handled or if there is more than one logging message to be handled in 1 second. This behavior prevents the router from crashing due to too many logging packets. Therefore, the logging facility should not be used as a billing tool or an accurate source of the number of matches to an access list.
If you enable CEF and then create an access list that uses the log keyword, the packets that match the access list are not CEF switched. They are fast switched. Logging disables CEF.
|
time-range time-range-name
|
(Optional) Name of the time range that applies to this permit statement. The name of the time range and its restrictions are specified by the time-range and absolute or periodic commands, respectively.
|

|
(Optional) ICMP packets can be filtered by ICMP message type. The type is a number from 0 to 255.
|
icmp-code
|
(Optional) ICMP packets which are filtered by ICMP message type can also be filtered by the ICMP message code. The code is a number from 0 to 255.
|
icmp-message
|
(Optional) ICMP packets can be filtered by an ICMP message type name or ICMP message type and code name. The possible names are found in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (IP extended) command.
|
igmp-type
|
(Optional) IGMP packets can be filtered by IGMP message type or message name. A message type is a number from 0 to 15. IGMP message names are listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (IP extended) command.
|
operator
|
(Optional) Compares source or destination ports. Possible operands include lt (less than), gt (greater than), eq (equal), neq (not equal), and range (inclusive range).
If the operator is positioned after the source and source-wildcard, it must match the source port.
If the operator is positioned after the destination and destination-wildcard, it must match the destination port.
The range operator requires two port numbers. All other operators require one port number.
|
port
|
(Optional) The decimal number or name of a TCP or UDP port. A port number is a number from 0 to 65535. TCP and UDP port names are listed in the "Usage Guidelines" section of the access-list (IP extended) command. TCP port names can only be used when filtering TCP. UDP port names can only be used when filtering UDP.
|
established
|
(Optional) For the TCP protocol only: Indicates an established connection. A match occurs if the TCP datagram has the ACK or RST bits set. The nonmatching case is that of the initial TCP datagram to form a connection.
|
fragments
|
(Optional) The access list entry applies to noninitial fragments of packets; the fragment is either permitted or denied accordingly. For more details about the fragments keyword, see the "Access List Processing of Fragments" and "Fragments and Policy Routing" sections in the "Usage Guidelines" section.

Use this command following the ip access-list command to define the conditions under which a packet passes the access list.
The time-range option allows you to identify a time range by name. The time-range, absolute, and periodic commands specify when this permit statement is in effect.
Access List Processing of Fragments
The behavior of access-list entries regarding the use or lack of the fragments keyword can be summarized as follows:
If the Access-List Entry has...
|
Then..
|
...no fragments keyword (the default behavior), and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
For an access-list entry containing only Layer 3 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets, initial fragments and noninitial fragments.
For an access list entry containing Layer 3 and Layer 4 information:
• The entry is applied to nonfragmented packets and initial fragments.
– If the entry is a permit statement, the packet or fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the packet or fragment is denied.
• The entry is also applied to noninitial fragments in the following manner. Because noninitial fragments contain only Layer 3 information, only the Layer 3 portion of an access-list entry can be applied. If the Layer 3 portion of the access-list entry matches, and
– If the entry is a permit statement, the noninitial fragment is permitted.
– If the entry is a deny statement, the next access-list entry is processed.
Note The deny statements are handled differently for noninitial fragments versus nonfragmented or initial fragments.
|
...the fragments keyword, and assuming all of the access-list entry information matches,
|
The access-list entry is applied only to noninitial fragments.
Note The fragments keyword cannot be configured for an access-list entry that contains any Layer 4 information.
|
Be aware that you should not simply add the fragments keyword to every access list entry because the first fragment of the IP packet is considered a nonfragment and is treated independently of the subsequent fragments. An initial fragment will not match an access list permit or deny entry that contains the fragments keyword, the packet is compared to the next access list entry, and so on, until it is either permitted or denied by an access list entry that does not contain the fragments keyword. Therefore, you may need two access list entries for every deny entry. The first deny entry of the pair will not include the fragments keyword, and applies to the initial fragment. The second deny entry of the pair will include the fragments keyword and applies to the subsequent fragments. In the cases where there are multiple deny access list entries for the same host but with different Layer 4 ports, a single deny access-list entry with the fragments keyword for that host is all that needs to be added. Thus all the fragments of a packet are handled in the same manner by the access list.
Packet fragments of IP datagrams are considered individual packets and each counts individually as a packet in access list accounting and access list violation counts.
Note
The fragments keyword cannot solve all cases involving access lists and IP fragments.
Fragments and Policy Routing
Fragmentation and the fragment control feature affect policy routing if the policy routing is based on the match ip address command and the access list had entries that match on Layer 4 through 7 information. It is possible that noninitial fragments pass the access list and are policy routed, even if the first fragment was not policy routed or the reverse.
By using the fragments keyword in access list entries as described earlier, a better match between the action taken for initial and noninitial fragments can be made and it is more likely policy routing will occur as intended.
Examples
The following example sets conditions for a standard access list named Internetfilter:
ip access-list standard Internetfilter
deny 192.5.34.0 0.0.0.255
permit 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255
permit 36.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
! (Note: all other access implicitly denied)
The following example permits Telnet traffic on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays between the hours of 9:00 am and 5:00 pm:
periodic Monday Tuesday Friday 9:00 to 17:00

show interface mac
To display MAC accounting information for interfaces configured for MAC accounting, use the show interface mac EXEC command.
show interface [type number] mac
Syntax Description
type
|
(Optional) Interface type supported on your router.
|
number
|
(Optional) Port number of the interface. The syntax varies depending on the type router. For example, on a Cisco 7500 series router the syntax is 0/0/0, where 0 represents the slot, port adapter, and port number (the slash is required). Refer to the appropriate hardware manual for numbering information.

This command was introduced.
|
Usage Guidelines
The show interface mac command displays information for all interfaces configured for MAC accounting. To display information for a single interface, use the show interface type number mac command.
For incoming packets on the interface, the accounting statistics are gathered before the CAR/DCAR feature is performed on the packet. For outgoing packets on the interface, the accounting statistics are gathered after output CAR, before output DCAR or DWRED or DWFQ feature is performed on the packet. Therefore, if a you are using DCAR or DWRED on the interface and packets are dropped, the dropped packets are still counted in the show interface mac command because the calculations are done prior to the features.
The maximum number of MAC addresses that can be stored for the input address is 512 and the maximum number of MAC address that can be stored for the output address is 512. After the maximum is reached, subsequent MAC addresses are ignored.
To clear the accounting statistics, use the clear counter EXEC command.
To configure an interface for IP accounting based on the MAC address, use the ip accounting mac-address interface configuration command.
Examples
The following is sample output from the show interface mac command. This feature calculates the total packet and byte counts for the interface that receives (input) or sends (output) IP packets to or from a unique MAC address. It also records a timestamp for the last packet received or sent.
Router# show interface ethernet 0/1/1 mac
0007.f618.4449(228): 4 packets, 456 bytes, last: 2684ms ago
Total: 4 packets, 456 bytes

Usage Guidelines
The show interface precedence command displays information for all interfaces configured for IP precedence accounting. To display information for a single interface, use the show interface type number precedence command.
For incoming packets on the interface, the accounting statistics are gathered before input CAR/DCAR is performed on the packet. Therefore, if CAR/DCAR changes the precedence on the packet, it is counted based on the old precedence setting with the show interface precedence command.
For outgoing packets on the interface, the accounting statistics are gathered after output DCAR or DWRED or DWFQ feature is performed on the packet.
To clear the accounting statistics, use the clear counter EXEC command.
To configure an interface for IP accounting based on IP precedence, use the ip accounting precedence interface configuration command.
Examples
The following is sample output from the show interface precedence command. This feature calculates the total packet and byte counts for the interface that receives (input) or sends (output) IP packets and sorts the results based on IP precedence.
Router# show interface ethernet 0/1/1 precedence

Usage Guidelines
HSRP ignores unauthenticated HSRP messages.
The authentication string is sent unencrypted in all HSRP messages. The same authentication string must be configured on all routers and access servers on a cable to ensure interoperation. Authentication mismatch prevents a device from learning the designated Hot Standby IP address and the Hot Standby timer values from other routers configured with HSRP.
When group number 0 is used, no group number is written to NVRAM, providing backward compatibility.
Examples
The following example configures "word" as the authentication string required to allow Hot Standby routers in group 1 to interoperate:
standby 1 authentication text word
standby ip
To activate the Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), use the standby ip interface configuration command. To disable HSRP, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
The standby ip command activates HSRP on the configured interface. If an IP address is specified, that address is used as the designated address for the Hot Standby group. If no IP address is specified, the designated address is learned through the standby function. For HSRP to elect a designated router, at least one router on the cable must have been configured with, or learned, the designated address. Configuring the designated address on the active router always overrides a designated address that is currently in use.
When the standby ip command is enabled on an interface, the handling of proxy ARP requests is changed (unless proxy ARP was disabled). If the interface's Hot Standby state is active, proxy ARP requests are answered using the Hot Standby group's MAC address. If the interface is in a different state, proxy ARP responses are suppressed.
When group number 0 is used, no group number is written to NVRAM, providing backward compatibility.
Examples
The following example activates HSRP for group 1 on Ethernet interface 0. The IP address used by the Hot Standby group will be learned using HSRP.
In the following example, all three virtual IP addresses appear in the ARP table using the same (single) virtual MAC address. All three virtual IP addresses are using the same HSRP group (group 0).
ip address 1.1.1.1. 255.255.255.0
ip address 1.2.2.2. 255.255.255.0 secondary
ip address 1.3.3.3. 255.255.255.0 secondary

Usage Guidelines
This command can not be used on a Token Ring Interface.
HSRP is used to help endstations locate the first hop gateway for IP routing. The endstations are configured with a default gateway. However, HSRP can provide first-hop redundancy for other protocols. Some protocols, such as APPN, use the MAC address to identify the first hop for routing purposes. In this case, it is often necessary to be able to specify the virtual MAC address; the virtual IP address is unimportant for these protocols. Use the standby mac-address command to specify the virtual MAC address.
The MAC address specified is used as the virtual MAC address when the router is active.
This command is intended for certain APPN configurations. The parallel terms are as follows:
APPN IP
end node host
network node router or gateway
In an APPN network, an end node is typically configured with the MAC address of the adjacent network node. Use the standby mac-address command in the routers to set the virtual MAC address to the value used in the end nodes.
Examples
If the end nodes are configured to use 4000.1000.1060 as the MAC address of the network node, the command to configure HSRP group 1 with the virtual MAC address is as follows:
standby 1 mac-address 4000.1000.1060

Usage Guidelines
This command applies to HSRP running over FDDI only. Packets are sent every 10 seconds to refresh the MAC cache on learning bridges or switches. By default, the MAC cache entries age out in 300 seconds (5 minutes).
All other routers participating in HSRP on the FDDI ring receive the refresh packets, although the packets are intended only for the learning bridge or switch. Use this command to change the interval. Set the interval to 0 if you want to prevent refresh packets (if you have FDDI but do not have a learning bridge or switch).
Examples
The following example changes the MAC refresh interval to 100 seconds. Therefore, a learning bridge would have to miss three packets before the entry ages out.
standby preempt
To configure Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) priority, preemption, and preemption delay, use the standby preempt or standby priority interface configuration commands. To restore the default values, use the no form of this command.
standby [group-number] priority priority [preempt [delay [minimum | sync] delay]]
standby [group-number] [priority priority] preempt [delay [minimum | sync] delay]
no standby [group-number] priority priority [preempt [delay [minimum | sync] delay]]
no standby [group-number] [priority priority] preempt [delay [minimum | sync] delay]
Syntax Description
group-number
|
(Optional) Group number on the interface to which the other arguments in this command apply.
|
priority priority
|
(Optional) Priority value that prioritizes a potential Hot Standby router. The range is 1 to 255, where 1 denotes the lowest priority and 255 denotes the highest priority. The default priority value is 100. The router in the HSRP group with the highest priority value becomes the active router.
|
preempt
|
(Optional) The router is configured to preempt, which means that when the local router has a Hot Standby priority higher than the current active router, the local router should attempt to assume control as the active router. If preempt is not configured, the local router assumes control as the active router only if it receives information indicating that there is no router currently in the active state (acting as the designated router).
|
delay minimum delay
|
(Optional) Time in seconds. The delay argument causes the local router to postpone taking over the active role for delay (minimum) seconds since that router was last restarted. The range is 0 to 3600 seconds (1 hour). The default is 0 seconds (no delay).
|
delay sync delay
|
(Optional) Specifies the maximum synchronization period in delay seconds.
|
Defaults
The default group number is 0.
The default priority is 100.
The default delay is 0 seconds; if the router wants to preempt, it will do so immediately.

The following keywords were added:
• sync
• minimum
|
Usage Guidelines
When using this command, you must specify at least one keyword (priority or preempt), or you can specify both.
When group number 0 is used, no group number is written to NVRAM, providing backward compatibility.
The assigned priority is used to help select the active and standby routers. Assuming preemption is enabled, the router with the highest priority becomes the designated active router. In case of ties, the primary IP addresses are compared, and the higher IP address has priority.
Note that the priority of the device can change dynamically if an interface is configured with the standby track command and another interface on the router goes down.
When a router first comes up, it does not have a complete routing table. If it is configured to preempt, it will become the active router, yet it is unable to provide adequate routing services. This problem is solved by configuring a delay before the preempting router actually preempts the currently active router.
For Mobile IP, if the standby preempt command is used, the preempt synchronization delay must be set or mobility bindings can not be retrieved before the home agent preempts to become active. In the case where one router is designated as the active home agent, the priority is set highest in the HSRP group and preempt is set. Also, the preempt delay sync command is configured so that all bindings are downloaded to the router before it takes the active role. When all bindings are downloaded or when the timer expires, whichever is first, the router becomes active.
Examples
In the following example, the router has a priority of 120 (higher than the default value) and will wait for 300 seconds (5 minutes) before attempting to become the active router:
standby ip 172.19.108.254
standby priority 120 preempt delay 300

Usage Guidelines
The standby timers command configures the time between standby hellos and the time before other routers declare the active or standby router to be down. Routers or access servers on which timer values are not configured can learn timer values from the active or standby router. The timers configured on the active router always override any other timer settings. All routers in a Hot Standby group should use the same timer values. Normally, holdtime is greater than or equal to 3 times the value of hellotime, (holdtime > 3 * hellotime).
The value of the standby timer will not be learned through HSRP hellos if it is less than 1 second.
When group number 0 is used, no group number is written to NVRAM, providing backward compatibility.
Examples
The following example sets, for group number 1 on Ethernet interface 0, the time between hello packets to 5 seconds, and the time after which a router is considered to be down to 15 seconds:
The following example sets, for the Hot Router interface located at 172.19.10.1 on Ethernet interface 0, the time between hello packets to 300 milliseconds, and the time after which a router is considered to be down to 900 milliseconds.

Usage Guidelines
This command ties the router's Hot Standby priority to the availability of its interfaces. It is useful for tracking interfaces that are not configured for the Hot Standby Router Protocol.
When a tracked interface goes down, the Hot Standby priority decreases by 10. If an interface is not tracked, its state changes do not affect the Hot Standby priority. For each interface configured for Hot Standby, you can configure a separate list of interfaces to be tracked.
The optional argument interface-priority specifies how much to decrement the Hot Standby priority by when a tracked interface goes down. When the tracked interface comes back up, the priority is incremented by the same amount.
When multiple tracked interfaces are down, the decrements are cumulative whether configured with interface-priority values or not.
A tracked interface is considered down if the IP address is disabled on that interface.
If HSRP is configured to track an interface, and that interface is physically removed as in the case of an online insertion and removal (OIR) operation, then HSRP will regard the interface as always down. Further, it will not be possible to remove the HSRP interface tracking configuration. To prevent this problem, use the no standby track interface-type interface-number command before you physically remove the interface.
Use the no standby group-number track command to delete all tracking configuration for a group.
When group number 0 is used, no group number is written to NVRAM, providing backward compatibility.
Examples
In the following example, Ethernet interface 1 tracks Ethernet interface 0 and serial interface 0. If one or both of these two interfaces go down, the Hot Standby priority of the router decreases by 10. Because the default Hot Standby priority is 100, the priority becomes 90 when one or both of the tracked interfaces go down.

standby use-bia
To configure Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) to use the burned-in address of the interface as its virtual MAC address, instead of the preassigned MAC address (on Ethernet and Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI)) or the functional address (on Token Ring), use the standby use-bia interface configuration command. To restore the default virtual MAC address, use the no form of this command.
standby use-bia [scope interface]
no standby use-bia
Syntax Description
scope interface

|
The behavior was modified to allow multiple standby groups to be configured for an interface configured with this command
|
Usage Guidelines
For an interface with this command configured, multiple standby group can be configured. Hosts on the interface need to have a default gateway configured. It is recommended you set the no ip proxy-arp command on the interface. It is desirable to configure the standby use-bia command on a Token Ring interface if there are devices that reject ARP replies with source hardware addresses set to a functional address.
When HSRP runs on a multiple-ring, source-routed bridging environment and the HRSP routers reside on different rings, configuring the standby use-bia command can prevent RIF confusion.
Without the scope interface keywords, the standby use-bia command applies to all sub-interfaces on the major interface. The standby use-bia command may not be configured both with and without the scope interface keywords at the same time.
Examples
In the following example, the burned-in address of Token Ring interface 4/0 will be the virtual MAC address mapped to the virtual IP address:
start-forwarding-agent
To start the forwarding agent, use the start-forwarding-agent CASA-port configuration command.
