• Interface — The interface type to which the rule applies. This is an optional field. This rule can be
applied to a selected port, LAG, or VLAN by selecting the check box and selecting the appropriate
option button and interface. Assigning an access profile to an interface denies access via other
interfaces. If an access profile is not assigned to any interface, the device can be accessed by
all interfaces.
• Enable Source IP Address — Check this parameter to restrict conditions based on the source
IP address. When unchecked, the source IP address cannot be entered into a configured rule.
• Supported IP Format — Specifies the IP format. The possible values are:
– IPv6 — IP version 6 is supported.
– IPv4 — IP version 4 is supported.
• IPv6 Address Type — For IPv6 (see previous parameter), this specifies the type of static address
supported. The possible values are:
– Link Local — A Link Local address that is non-routable and used for communication on the same
network only.
– Global — A globally unique IPv6 address; visible and reachable from different subnets.
• Source IP Address — The interface source IP address for which the rule applies. This is an optional
field and indicates that the rule is valid for a subnetwork.
• Network Mask — The IP subnetwork mask.
• Prefix Length — The number of bits that comprise the source IP address prefix, or the network mask
of the source IP address.
