Chapter 3: Configuration

3.2 ACL

The PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch Eco access control list (ACL) is probably the most commonly used object in the IOS. It is used not only for packet filtering but also for selecting types of traffic to be analyzed, forwarded, or influenced in some way. The ACLs are divided into EtherTypes. IPv4, ARP protocol, MAC and VLAN parameters etc. Here we will go over the standard and extended access lists for TCP/IP. To create ACEs for ingress classification, assign a policy for each port. The policy numbers are 1-8, but, each policy can be applied to any port. This makes it very easy to determine what type of ACL policy you will be working with.

3.2.1 Ports

This section describes how to configure the ACL parameters (ACE) of each switch port. These parameters will affect frames received on a port unless the frame matches a specific ACE.

Web Interface

To configure the ACL Ports Configuration in the Web interface:

1.Click Configuration, ACL, then Ports.

2.To scroll the specific parameter value to select the correct value for port ACL setting.

3.Click the Save button to save the setting

4.If you want to cancel the setting, click the Reset button. It will revert to previously saved values.

5.After your configuration is complete, you can see the port counter. Click Refresh to update the counter or click Clear to clear any unsaved changes.

Figure 3-8 The ACL Ports Configuration screen.

Parameter Description

Port: The logical port for the settings contained in the same row.

Policy Policy ID: Select the policy to apply to this port. The values should be 1 through 8. The default value is 1.

Action: Select whether forwarding is permitted (“Permit“) or denied (“Deny“). The default value is "Permit".

LPB2848A, LPB2826A, LPB2810A, PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch Eco specifications

The Black Box PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch series, including the models LPB2810A, LPB2826A, and LPB2848A, presents a robust solution for businesses looking to enhance their network efficiency and reliability. Designed to support the growing demand for Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices, these switches provide the perfect backbone for modern network infrastructures.

One of the most significant features of this series is its PoE+ capability, which allows it to deliver power and data over a single Ethernet cable. This functionality simplifies cabling and installation, making it easier to deploy PoE devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. The LPB2810A offers 8 PoE+ ports, the LPB2826A ups the ante with 24 ports, and the LPB2848A provides a whopping 48 ports, each capable of delivering up to 30 watts of power per port.

The managed switch system ensures that users can customize and optimize their network performance. With advanced features such as VLAN support, Quality of Service (QoS), and link aggregation, organizations can effectively manage traffic, prioritize critical applications, and potentially enhance overall network security. Furthermore, these switches support Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionalities, which allows for greater flexibility when implementing routing policies.

Another critical aspect of the LPB series is its built-in security features. The switches come equipped with advanced security protocols, including IEEE 802.1X port-based access control, which enables network administrators to authenticate devices before granting access to the network. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and ensures data integrity across the connected devices.

The Black Box PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switches are designed with reliability and ease of use in mind. Their fanless design promotes silent operation, making them ideal for deployment in both office environments and data centers. Additionally, the switches offer a user-friendly web-based interface and CLI options for straightforward management and configuration, catering to both novice and seasoned network administrators.

In conclusion, the Black Box PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch series, featuring models LPB2810A, LPB2826A, and LPB2848A, stands out with its power-efficient design, extensive port options, and advanced security measures. These switches are an excellent choice for organizations that require a dependable and scalable networking solution to support their growing Ethernet and PoE device needs.
