Chapter 13
Access Control Configuration
Access Control configuration allows you to control different aspects of the
Ethernet traffic as it enters the switch ports and is process through the
switch. You can specify what traffic is permitted or denied to flow through
the switch by setting up specific filter criteria at an ingress port. You can
also manage the switching priority of ethernet packets. All of this is done
by specifying policies that define the filtering and priority behavior.
Note
Before you specify the Access Control policies, be sure to configure
the QoS parameters. The QoS entries may have a direct affect on
each policy's behavior. For more information, see Chapter 12,
"Quality of Service (CoS)" on page 165.
Before a policy can be defined, you need to specify certain ACL
configuration information. This information must be entered sequentially
on the following web pages:
"Classifier" on page 178

"Profile Action" on page 183

"In-Profile Action" on page 187

"Out-Profile Action" on page 191

"Port List" on page 195

With the unique index number from each of these web pages, you can
configure a "Policy" on page 198
If you define multiple policies for different ports, you can go to "Policy
Sequence" on page 203 to display the order that policies are applied to
each port.
