Chapter28 Configuring Network Securi ty with ACLs
Creating Named MAC Extended ACLs
Use the no mac access-list extended name global configuration command to delete the entire ACL. You
can also delete individual ACEs from named MAC extended ACLs.
This example shows how to create and display an access list named mac1, denying only EtherType
DECnet Phase IV traffic, but permitting all other types of traffic.
Switch(config)# mac access-list extended mac1
Switch(config-ext-macl)# deny any any decnet-iv
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit any any
Switch(config-ext-macl)# end
Switch # show access-lists
Extended MAC access list mac1
10 deny any any decnet-iv
20 permit any any
Applying a MAC ACL to a Layer 2 Interface
After you create a MAC ACL, you can apply it to a Layer 2 interfa ce to filter non-IP traffic coming in
that interface. When you apply the MAC ACL, consider these guidelines:
•You can apply no more than one IP access list and one MAC access list to the same Layer 2 interface.
The IP access list filters only IP packets, and the MAC access list filters non-IP packets.
•A Layer 2 interface can have only one MAC access list. If you apply a MAC access list to a Layer2
interface that has a MAC ACL configured, the new ACL replaces the previously configured one.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to apply a MAC access list to control access to
a Layer 2 interface:
To remove the specified access group, use the no mac access-group {name} interface configuration
command.
This example shows how to apply MAC access list mac1 to a port to filter packets entering the port:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/2
Router(config-if)# mac access-group mac1 in
Note The mac access-group interface configuration command is only valid when applied to a physical
Layer 2 interface.You cannot use the command on EtherChannel port channels.
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 interface interface-id Identify a specific interface, and enter interface configuration
mode. The interface must be a physical Layer 2 interface (port
ACL).
Step3 mac access-group {name} {in} Control access to the specified interface by using the MAC access
list.
Port ACLs are supported only in the inbound direction.
Step4 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step5 show mac access-group [interface interface-id] Display the MAC access list applied to the interface or all Layer 2
interfaces.
Step6 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
