Configure Access Control Lists
Access control lists (ACLs) ensure that only authorized users can access specific resources
while blocking off any unwarranted attempts to reach network resources. ACLs are used to
provide traffic flow control, restrict contents of routing updates, decide which types of traffic
are forwarded or blocked, and above all provide security for the network. The switch’s
supports IPv4 and MAC ACLs.
You can use the ACL Wizard to configure a simple ACL and apply it to selected ports (see
Use the ACL Wizard to Create a Simple ACL on page 220) or you can configure an ACL
manually, which allows you to set up a more complex ACL.
 To manually configure an ACL:
1. Create a MAC-based or IPv4-based ACL ID (see Configure a MAC ACL on page 225 or
Configure an IP ACL on page 234).
2. Create a rule, assign it to a unique ACL ID, and define the rule. (see Configure MAC ACL
Rules on page 227, Configure Rules for a Basic IP ACL on page 236, or Configure Rules
for an Extended IP ACL on page 240).
