Introduction
This document is not specific to any software version or device model.
Troubleshooting ACL
This section provides troubleshooting information for common problems with ACLs.
ACL application failure with an error message
Symptom
The system fails to apply a packet filter or ACL-based classifiers in a QoS policy to the hardware. It also
displays the "Reason: Not enough hardware resource" message.
Solution
To resolve this problem:
1. Execute the display acl resource command, and then check the Remaining field for ACL resources
insufficiency.
If this field displays 0, the ACL hardware resources are exhausted.
2. To free hardware resources, remove unused packet filters or ACL-based classifiers from QoS
policies.
3. If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.
ACL application failure without an error message
Symptom
The system applies a packet filter or a QoS policy that contains ACLs to the hardware. However, the ACL
does not take effect.

Solution
Choose a solution depending on the module that uses the ACL.
ACL used in a QoS policy
To resolve the problem when the ACL is used in a QoS policy:
1. Verify that the QoS policy is configured correctly:
a. Use one of the following commands to check the QoS policy for configuration errors,
depending on the policy application destination:
Destination Command
Interface
display qos policy interface
VLAN
display qos vlan-policy
Global
display qos policy global
Control plane
display qos policy control-plane slot

Solution
To resolve the problem:
1. Verify that the number of member chassis does not exceed the upper limit (nine).
If you are adding new chassis to an existing IRF fabric, use the display irf command to identify the
number of member chassis already in the chassis.
2. Verify that the member ID of each member chassis is unique:
a. Execute the display irf configuration command to view the member ID of each chassis.
b. If two member chassis use duplicate IDs, assign a unique member ID to each member.
3. Verify that the physical IRF links are connected correctly:
IMPORTANT:
W
hen you connect two neighboring IRF members, you must connect the physical ports of IRF-port 1
on one member to the physical ports of IRF-port 2 on the other.
a. Execute the display irf configuration command on each member chassis, and check the
IRF-Port1 and IRF-Port2 fields for IRF port bindings.
b. Verify that the physical IRF connections are consistent with the IRF port bindings.
c. If there are inconsistencies, reconfigure the IRF port bindings or reconnect the physical IRF
ports.
4. Verify that IRF links are 10 Gbps:
a. Verify that the transceiver modules or cables for IRF connection are labeled with 10Gbps or
SFP+.
b. Replace a transceiver module or cable if it is not for 10 Gbps connection.
5. Verify that all IRF links are up:
a. Execute the display irf topology command, and then check the Link field.
b. If the Link field for an IRF port displays DOWN, execute the display interface command, and
then check the current state field.
If all physical ports bound to the IRF port are down, bring them up.
If the IRF port has at least one physical port in up state, proceed to the next step.
c. Save the configuration, and then execute the irf-port-configuration active command in system
view to activate the IRF port configuration.
IMPORTANT:
A

uration loss, you must save
the configuration before you execute the irf-port-configuration active command.
6. Verify that all member chassis use the same software version:
a. Execute the display version command to identify the software version of each member device.
b. Upgrade the software of all member chassis to the same version.
7
NOTE:
Typically the irf auto-update enable command can automatically synchronize a member chassis with
the software version of the master chassis. However, the synchronization might fail when the gap
between the software versions is large.
7. If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.

3. Verify that the member ports have the same attribute configurations and class-two configurations
as the reference port:
a. Execute the display current-configuration interface command to display the configurations of
the aggregate interface and the member ports.
b. Configure the member ports to make sure they have the same attribute configurations and
class-two configurations as the reference port.
4. Identify the aggregation mode of the aggregation group.
{ If the aggregation mode is static, proceed to step 6.
{ If the aggregation mode is dynamic, proceed to step 5.
5. Verify that the peer member ports have the same attribute configurations and class-two
configurations as the peer port of the reference port:
a. Execute the display current-configuration interface command on the peer device to display the
configurations of the peer member ports.
b. Configure the peer member ports to make sure the peer ports have the same attribute
configurations and class-two configurations as the peer port of the reference port.
6. Verify that the number of member ports in the aggregation group does not exceed eight.
a. Execute the display link-aggregation verbose command to verify that the number of member
ports does not exceed eight.
If the number of member ports exceeds eight, the ports with higher port numbers are in
Unselected state.
b. Use the undo port link-aggregation group command to remove undesired member ports from
the aggregation group.

Solution
To solve the problem:
1. Verify that no error packets have been received on the local port:
a. Execute the display interface command and check for error packets.
<H3C>display interface GigabitEthernet1/0/36
GigabitEthernet1/0/36 current state: UP
IP Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2, Hardware Address: 000f-e200-002b
……
Last 300 seconds output: 0 packets/sec 10 bytes/sec 0%
Input (total): 57 packets, 7838 bytes
0 unicasts, 50 broadcasts, 2 multicasts, 0 pauses
Input (normal): 52 packets, - bytes
0 unicasts, 50 broadcasts, 2 multicasts, 0 pauses
Input: 5 input errors, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles
5 CRC, 0 frame, - overruns, 0 aborts
- ignored, - parity errors
b. If the statistics are not zero, the following failures might occur:
Interface hardware failure—To test such a failure, connect the cable that is connected to the
local port to a correctly operating port (for example, Port A) with the same configurations as
the local port. If Port A forwards traffic correctly, you can determine that the hardware of the
local port fails. In this event, you must replace the local port with a correctly operating port.
Transceiver module, fiber, or twisted pair failure—To test and solve such a failure, replace
the transceiver module, fiber, or twisted pair with a good one.
Inconsistent configurations—Verify that the configurations (such as speed and duplex mode)
of the peer are consistent with the local port. If they are inconsistent, modify the
configurations of the local port.
c. If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.
2. Verify that packets are not mistakenly filtered out by ACLs:
a. Examine the ACL and QoS policy configuration for packet filtering on the port, on the VLAN of
the port, or globally. If packets are mistakenly filtered out, modify the ACL or QoS policy
configuration.
To display the ACL configuration on the port for packet filtering, execute the display
packet-filter command.
To display the QoS policy configuration on the port, execute the display qos policy
command.
To display the QoS policy configuration on the VLANs of the port, execute the display qos
vlan-policy command.
To display the global QoS policy configuration, execute the display qos policy global
command.
b. Examine whether packets are filtered out by automatically created ACLs.
The following features automatically create ACLs:
IP source guard—Configured by using the ip source binding or ip verify source command.
To display source guard binding entries, execute the display ip source binding or display
18
ipv6 source binding command. If IP source guard is configured but the packets match no
entry, further troubleshoot the problem based on the way the binding entries are created.
Portal authentication—When portal authentication is configured, the port discards the
packets of unauthenticated users. To display the portal configuration of the port or the
VLANs of the port, execute the display portal interface command. To cancel the portal
configuration on the port, execute the undo portal command in Layer 2 Ethernet interface
view. To cancel the portal configuration on the VLAN of the port, execute the undo portal
server server-name command on the corresponding VLAN interface.
EAD fast deployment—When EAD fast deployment is enabled, the port discards packets of
unauthenticated users except when the users only access a free IP. To display whether EAD
fast deployment is enabled on the port, execute the display dot1x command.
MFF—To display the MFF configuration information of the VLAN to which the port belongs,
execute the display mac-forced-forwarding vlan command. If the output does not contain
the gateway information, examine whether the ARP snooping or DHCP snooping
configuration is correct.
3. Verify that the port is not blocked:
{ Execute the display stp brief command to determine whether STP sets the state of the port to
discarding. When the port is in discarding state, it cannot forward traffic. H3C recommends
disabling STP on the port, or configuring the port as an edge port if the port is connected to a
terminal device.
{ If the port belongs to an aggregation group, execute the display link-aggregation verbose
command to identify the port status. When the port is an Unselected port, it cannot forward
traffic. Locate the reasons why the port is in Unselected state. For example, the attribute
configurations of the port are different from the configurations of the reference port.
{ Execute the display rrpp verbose command to determine whether the port is down or RRPP sets
the state of the port to blocked. When the port is in down or blocked state, it cannot forward
traffic.
If the port is in down state, examine whether the port is physically or administratively shut
down.
If the port is in blocked state, find the reasons. For example, the roles of the primary and
secondary port on the master node are reversed, or the broadcast storm suppression
mechanism blocks the port because SRPT failure occurs in a multi-homed subring.
{ Execute the display smart-link group command to determine whether Smart Link sets the state
of the port to standby or down. When the port is in standby or down state, it cannot forward
traffic.
If the port is in standby state, set the port as the primary port.
If the port is in down state, the follow reasons might apply, and further troubleshooting is
required:
The uplink device is configured with Monitor link, and its uplink is down.
The link between the local port and its peer fails.
The local port is administratively shut down.
4. Examine the following configurations that might cause packet loss:
{ VLAN configuration—Execute the display this command in Ethernet interface view to display
whether the port is in the VLAN of the packets. If not, add the port to the VLAN.
{ Blackhole MAC address entries—Execute the display mac-address blackhole command to
display blackhole MAC address entries. If the packets are discarded because they match a
19
blackhole MAC address entry, delete the entry. To delete the blackhole MAC address entry,
execute the undo mac-address blackhole mac-address vlan vlan-id command.
{ Rate limit—Execute the display qos lr interface command to display the rate limit configuration
on the port. If rate limit is configured on the port, make sure the committed information rate (CIR)
and the committed burst size (CBS) are appropriate. To adjust the CIR and CBS values, execute
the qos lr { inbound | outbound } cir committed-information-rate [ cbs committed-burst-size ]
command.
{ Storm suppression—Execute the display this command in Ethernet interface view to display the
configuration of storm suppression. Storm suppression includes broadcast suppression,
multicast suppression, and unknown unicast suppression. To adjust the suppression thresholds,
execute the broadcast-suppression, multicast-suppression, and unicast-suppression
commands, respectively.
5. Verify that no congestion occurs by using the display qos queue-statistics interface command.
If congestion occurs, locate and solve the problem by referencing related congestion management
documents.
6. If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.
