Defining Access Control

Access Control Lists (ACL) allow network managers to define classification actions and rules for
specific ingress ports. Your switch supports up to 256 ACLs. Packets entering an ingress port, with

traffic classifications. The total number of ACEs that can be defined in all ACLs together is 256.
The Access Control section contains the following pages:

an interface.
