Configuring Network Security with ACLs

Port ACLs

Port ACLs are ACLs that are applied to Layer 2 interfaces on a switch. Port ACLs are supported only on
physical interfaces and not on EtherChannel interfaces and can be applied only on interfaces in the
inbound direction. These access lists are supported on Layer 2 interfaces:
The switch examines ACLs associated with all inbound features configured on a given interface and
permits or denies packet forwarding based on how the packet matches the entries in the ACL. In this way,
ACLs are used to control access to a network or to part of a network.
port ACLs to control access to a network when all workstations are in the same VLAN. ACLs applied at
the Layer 2 input would allow Host A to access the Human Resources network, but prevent Host B from
accessing the same network. Port ACLs can only be applied to Layer 2 interfaces in the inbound
direction.

When a VLAN map, input router ACL, and input port ACL exist in an SVI, incoming packets
received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are only filtered by the port ACL. Incoming
routed IP packets received on other ports are filtered by both the VLAN map and the router ACL.
Other packets are filtered only by the VLAN map.
When a VLAN map, output router ACL, and input port ACL exist in an SVI, incoming packets
received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are only filtered by the port ACL. Outgoing
routed IP packets are filtered by both the VLAN map and the router ACL. Other packets are filtered
only by the VLAN map.
