Configure MAC ACL Rules
You can define rules for MAC-based ACLs. The access list definition includes rules that
specify whether traffic matching the criteria is forwarded normally or discarded. A default
deny all rule is the last rule of every list.
Add a Rule to a MAC ACL
 To add a rule to a MAC ACL:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is of
f-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser
, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 11.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’
s password in the password field.
The default password is password. If you added the switch to a network on the Insight
app before and you did not yet change the password through the local browser interface,
enter your Insight network password.
The System Information page displays.
