Implementing Time-Based Acl Rules; Ipv4 Fragments Filtering With Acls; Configuration Guidelines; Recommended Acl Configuration Procedures - HP 1910 User Manual

For example, if the numbering step is 5 (the default), and there are five ACL rules numbered 0, 5, 9, 10,
and 12, the newly defined rule is numbered 15. If the ACL does not contain any rule, the first rule is
numbered 0.
Whenever the step changes, the rules are renumbered, starting from 0. For example, if there are five rules
numbered 5, 10, 13, 15, and 20, changing the step from 5 to 2 causes the rules to be renumbered 0,
2, 4, 6, and 8.

Implementing time-based ACL rules

You can implement ACL rules based on the time of day by applying a time range to them. A time-based
ACL rule takes effect only in any time periods specified by the time range.
The following basic types of time range are available:
Periodic time range—Recurs periodically on a day or days of the week.
•
Absolute time range—Represents only a period of time and does not recur.
•

IPv4 fragments filtering with ACLs

Traditional packet filtering matches only first fragments of IPv4 packets, and allows all subsequent
non-first fragments to pass through. Attackers can fabricate non-first fragments to attack networks.
To avoid the risks, the HP ACL implementation does the follows:
Filters all fragments by default, including non-first fragments.
•
Allows for matching criteria modification, for example, filters non-first fragments only.
•

Configuration guidelines

When you configure an ACL, follow these guidelines:
You cannot add a rule with, or modify a rule to have, the same permit/deny statement as an
•
existing rule in the ACL.
You can only modify the existing rules of an ACL that uses the match order of config. When
•
modifying a rule of such an ACL, you can choose to change just some of the settings, in which case
the other settings remain the same.

1. Configuring a time range
Remarks
Optional.
Add a time range. A rule referencing a time range
takes effect only during the specified time range.
