Configuring Access Control Lists

Access Control Lists (ACLs) ensure that only authorized users have access to specific resources
while blocking off any unwarranted attempts to reach network resources. ACLs are used to
provide traffic flow control, restrict contents of routing updates, decide which types of traffic are
forwarded or blocked, and above all provide security for the network. GS716T/GS724T software
supports IPv4 and MAC ACLs.

Description
The selection list consists of physical ports, protected as well as unprotected.
The protected ports are highlighted to differentiate between them. No traffic
forwarding is possible between two protected ports. If left unconfigured, the
default state is Unprotected.
