Defining IP ACLs

Access Control Lists (ACL) allow network managers to define classification actions and rules for specific
ingress ports. The switch supports up to 256 ACLs. Packets entering an ingress port, with an active ACL, are
either admitted or denied entry. If they are denied entry, the user can disable the port. ACLs are composed of
Access Control Entries (ACEs) that are made of the filters that determine traffic classifications. The total
number of ACEs that can be defined in all ACLs together is 256. To define IP based ACLs:
1. Click Security > Access Control > Define IP ACL. The Define IP ACL Page opens.
