ACL Accounting Upgrade Considerations
ACL accounting will be enabled by default
for all filters. In FastIron 08.0.95 and later, the
enable-accounting command has
been modified to enable
accounting. After an upgrade to FastIron 08.0.95 or a later, the following changes occur for ACL accounting:
- IPv4 ACL: If accounting is enabled for an IPv4 ACL before upgrade, then it is enabled for all the filters that belong to that ACL after the upgrade.
- IPv6 ACL: If accounting is enabled for an IPv6 ACL before upgrade, then it is enabled for all the filters that belong to that ACL after the upgrade.
- MAC ACL: If accounting is enabled for a MAC filter before upgrade, then it is enabled for any MAC ACL that contains the filter after the upgrade.
The ACL accounting configuration of the MAC filter will migrate seamlessly during the upgrade. The accounting configuration for MAC filters that are not bound to any interface will be lost during upgrade and must be configured again for any resulting MAC ACL.
