Chapter 15 Configuring Access Control
Using VACLs in Your Network
To redirect the broadcast traffic to a specific server port, perform this task in privileged mode (TCP
port 5000 is the intended server application port):
Note You could apply the same concept to direct the broadcast traffic to a multicast destination by redirecting
the traffic to a group of ports (see Figure 15-5).
Figure 15-5 Redirecting Broadcast Traffic to a Specific Server Port
Restricting the DHCP Response for a Specific Server
When the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) requests are broadcast, they reach every DHCP
server in the VLAN and multiple responses are returned. With the VACLs, you can restrict the response
from a specific DHCP server and drop the other responses.
