Packet Filtering

Note:

A packet is filtered against the ACL policies defined in the ACL list in the list order. The packet is matched against policy number 1 first, then policy number 2, then policy number 3, and so on until the packet finds a match or it exhausts the list. If a match is found, the VSU applies the action specified in the policy to the packet. If no match is found, the VSU applies the default policy to the packet. The default policy is to permit the packet.
