Access Control List

Configuration

Guide

This chapter explains how to configure and use Access Control Lists (ACLs) on the SSR. ACLs are lists of selection criteria for specific types of packets. When used in conjunction with certain SSR functions, ACLs allow you to restrict Layer-3/4 traffic going through the router.

This chapter contains the following sections:

“ACL Basics” on page 260 explains how ACLs are defined and how the SSR evaluates them.

“Creating and Modifying ACLs” on page 264 describes how to edit ACLs, either remotely or by using the the SSR’s built-in ACL Editor function.

“Using ACLs” on page 266 describes the different kinds of ACLs: Interface ACLs, Service ACLs, Layer-4 Bridging ACLs, and Profile ACLs, and gives examples of their usage.

“Enabling ACL Logging” on page 273 explains how to log information about packets that are permitted or denied because of an ACL.

“Monitoring ACLs” on page 274 lists the commands you can use to display information about ACLs active on the SSR.
