Blocking all multicast traffic

This example uses an interface ACL with an action of deny.

Consider a situation where multiple clients are attached to the switch, with each client attached to a different port. Each client has a specific service, which includes a set of allowed traffic types.

The client on port 1.0.10 is using a service that does not allow any multicast packets to be sent. To configure this:

1.Create an ACL to match and deny all packets with a multicast destination address. To do this, enter global configuration mode and use the command:

awplus(config)#access-list 3100 deny ip any 224.0.0.0/4

2.Attach the ACL to port 1.0.10. To do this, use the commands:

awplus(config)#interface port1.0.10

awplus(config-if)#ip access-group 3100

3.Verify the configuration.

To see the ACL ID number and keywords, return to privileged exec mode and enter the command:

awplus#show access-list

To see the ACLs that are attached to port 1.0.10, enter the command:

awplus#show interface port1.0.10 access-group
