4.4.2 Access Control Lists

Packet filtering can limit network traffic and restrict network use by certain users or devices. Access Control
Lists (ACLs) filter traffic as it passes through the switch and permits or denies packets from crossing specified
interfaces.
An ACL is a sequential collection of permit and deny conditions that apply to packets. When a packet is
received on an interface, the switch compares the fields in the packet against any applied ACLs to verify that
the packet has the required permissions to be forwarded, based on the criteria specified in the ACLs
To see the configuration hierarchy while creating an Access Control List, click Where Am I? at any point. A

Description
Specifies how long the switch waits, in seconds, for an MU to respond to a
"request identity" message. After the Tx period expires, the switch sends another
"request identity" to the MU. When the MU responds to the message, the
authentication process begins.
If the reauthentication period is enabled, this specifies the number of times the
switch will try to re-authenticate an MU that doesn't respond to the "request
identity" message.
To save your settings, click the Save button. The button is disabled until you
provide RADIUS Server Name/IP, RADIUS Port, and RADIUS Shared Secret
values.
