AT-8000GS/48 Layer 2 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch

Access Control Lists (ACLs)

Access Control Lists enable inspection of incoming frames and classify them based on various criteria. Specific actions can then be applied to these frames in order to more effectively manage the network traffic. Typically ACLs are used as a security mechanism, either permitting or denying entry (hence the name Access Control) for frames in a group, but can also be applied to QoS.

Supported ACL types are:

IP ACLs – applicable to IP packet type. All classification fields are related to IP packets.

MAC ACLs – classification fields are based on Layer 2 fields.
