Misc Commands and Notes

The response to an invalid keyword, the command returns to the cursor will include all valid content up to where the error was made.

The prompt will only delete the invalid keyword “proc” and return to a prompt with the command 

Brocade# show 

This will allow the user to continue typing from the point of failure, rather than having to type out the entire command again.

ACL to Restrict Telnet, SSH and Web access

Brocade(config)# access-list 10 deny 209.157.24.0 0.0.0.255

Brocade(config)# access-list 10 deny 209.157.25.0/24 

Brocade(config)# access-list 10 permit any

Brocade(config)# telnet access-group 10

You would just create ACLs like the one's just above but just wanted to show the command for SSH / Web access.

Brocade(config)# ssh access-group 12

Brocade(config)# web access-group 12

The <num> variable specifies the number of a standard IPv4 ACL, 1 – 99

Note: Use the ipv6 parameter if you are applying an IPv6 access list.
