3.2 ACL
The Gigabit Managed Switch access control list (ACL) is probably the most commonly used object in the IOS. It is used not only
for packet filtering but also for selecting types of traffic to be analyzed, forwarded, or influenced in some way. The ACLs are
divided into EtherTypes. IPv4, ARP protocol, MAC and VLAN parameters etc. Here we will go over the standard and extended
access lists for TCP/IP. To create ACEs for ingress classification, assign a policy for each port. The policy numbers are 1-8, but, each
policy can be applied to any port. This makes it very easy to determine what type of ACL policy you will be working with.
3.2.1 Ports
This section describes how to configure the ACL parameters (ACE) of each switch port. These parameters will affect frames
received on a port unless the frame matches a specific ACE.
Web Interface
To configure the ACL Ports Configuration in the Web interface:
1. Click Configuration, ACL, then Ports.
2. To scroll the specific parameter value to select the correct value for port ACL setting.
3. Click the Save button to save the setting
4. If you want to cancel the setting, click the Reset button. It will revert to previously saved values.
5. After your configuration is complete, you can see the port counter. Click Refresh to update the counter or click Clear to clear
any unsaved changes.
