Release Information

Statement introduced before Junos OS Release 7.4.

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.1X48 for PTX Packet Transport Switches.

Description

For Gigabit Ethernet intelligent queuing (IQ) interfaces only, accept traffic from and to the specified remote media access control (MAC) address.

The accept-source-mac statement is equivalent to the source-address-filter statement, which is valid for aggregated Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces only.

On untagged Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, you should not configure the source-address-filter statement and the accept-source-mac statement simultaneously. On tagged Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, you should not configure the source-address-filter statement and the accept-source-mac statement with an identical MAC address specified in both filters.

The statements are explained separately.

Note: The policer statement is not supported on PTX Series Packet Transport Switches.
