Configuring Action and Criteria for Subscriber Traffic
To create rules to deny/permit the subscriber traffic and apply the rules after or before action, enter the following
command sequence from the Exec mode of the system CLI:
configure
context acl_ctxt_name [ -noconfirm ]
Notes:
The system does not apply a "deny any" rule, unless it is specified in the ACL. This behavior can be

changed by adding a "deny any" rule at the end of the ACL.
• The maximum number of rules that can be configured per ACL varies depending on how the ACL is to

Configuring an Undefined ACL
As discussed previously the system uses an "undefined" ACL mechanism for filtering the packet(s) in the
event that an ACL that has been applied is not present. This scenario is likely the result of a mis-configuration
such as the ACL name being mis-typed during the configuration process.
For these scenarios, the system provides an "undefined" ACL that acts as a default filter for all packets into
the context. The default action is to "permit all".
To modify the default behavior for unidentified ACLs, use the following configuration:
configure
context acl_ctxt_name [-noconfirm]

{ ip | ipv6 } access-list acl_list_name

deny { ip_address | any | host | icmp | ip | log | tcp | udp }
permit { ip_address | any | host | icmp | ip | log | tcp | udp }

before { deny | permit | readdress | redirect }
