Examples of Router ACLs and VLAN Maps Applied to VLANs

This section gives examples of applying router ACLs and VLAN maps to a VLAN for switched, bridged,
routed, and multicast packets. Although the following illustrations show packets being forwarded to their
destination, each time the packet's path crosses a line indicating a VLAN map or an ACL, it is also
possible that the packet might be dropped, rather than forwarded.

To define multiple actions in an ACL (permit, deny), group each action type together to reduce the
number of entries.
Avoid including Layer 4 information in an ACL; adding this information complicates the merging
process. The best merge results are obtained if the ACLs are filtered based on IP addresses (source
and destination) and not on the full flow (source IP address, destination IP address, protocol, and
protocol ports). It is also helpful to use don't care bits in the IP address, whenever possible.
If you need to specify the full-flow mode and the ACL contains both IP ACEs and TCP/UDP/ICMP
ACEs with Layer 4 information, put the Layer 4 ACEs at the end of the list. This gives priority to
the filtering of traffic based on IP addresses.
