N Commands

This chapter describes the Cisco NX-OS security commands that begin with N.

neq

To specify a not-equal-to group member for an IP port object group, use the neq command. To remove a not-equal-to group member from port object group, use the no form of this command.

[ sequence-number ] neq port-number

no { sequence-number | neq port-number }

 
Syntax Description

sequence-number

(Optional) Sequence number for this group member. Sequence numbers maintain the order of group members within an object group. Valid sequence numbers are from 1 to 4294967295. If you do not specify a sequence number, the device assigns a number that is 10 greater than the largest sequence number in the current object group.

port-number

Port number that this group member does not match. Valid values are from 0 to 65535.

 
Defaults

None

This command was introduced.

 
Usage Guidelines

A not-equal-to group member matches port numbers that are not equal to the port number specified in the entry.

IP port object groups are not directional. Whether an neq command matches a source or destination port or whether it applies to inbound or outbound traffic depends upon how you use the object group in an ACL.

This command does not require a license.

Examples

This example shows how to configure an IP port object group named port-group-05 with a group member that matches traffic sent to any port except port 80:

switch# config t
switch(config)# object-group ip port port-group-05
switch(config-port-ogroup)# neq 80
