Chapter22 Configuring Network Security with ACLs
Configuring ACLs
In this example, the first ACE permits all the TCP packets coming from host 10.1.1.1 with a
destination TCP port number of 80. The second ACE permits all TCP packet s coming from host
20.1.1.1 with a destination TCP port number of 23. Both the ACEs use the same mask; t herefore, a
switch supports this ACL.
When you apply an ACL to a physical interface, some keywords are not supported and certain mask
restrictions apply to the ACLs. See the “Creating a Numbered Standard ACL” section on page22- 8
and the “Creating a Numbered Extended ACL” section on pa ge 22-9 for creating these ACLs.
Note You can also apply ACLs to a management interface without the above limitations. For information, see
the “Configuring IP Services” section of the Cisco IOS IP and IP Routing Configuration Guide, Cisco
IOS Release 12.1 and the Cisco IOS IP and IP Routing Command Reference, Cisco IOS Release 12.1.

“Creating Standard and Extended IP ACLs” section on page 22-7
“Creating Named MAC Extended ACLs” section on page 22-17
“Creating MAC Access Groups” section on page 22-18
Configuring ACLs on a Layer 2 interface is the same as configuring ACLs on Cisco routers. The process
is briefly described here. For more detailed information about configuring router ACLs, see the
“Configuring IP Services” chapter in the Cisco IP and IP Routing Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS
Release12.1. For detailed information about the commands, see the Cisco IOS IP and IP Routing
Command Reference, Cisco IOS Release 12.1. For a list of Cisco IOS feat ures not supported on the
switch, see the “Unsupported Features” section on page 22-6.

Unsupported Features

The switch does not support these Cisco IOS router ACL-related features:
Non-IP protocol ACLs (see Table22-2 on pa ge 22-7)
Bridge-group ACLs
IP accounting
ACL support on the outbound direction
Inbound and outbound rate limiting (except with QoS ACLs)
IP packets that have a header length of less than 5 bytes
Reflexive ACLs
Dynamic ACLs
ICMP-based filtering
Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGMP)-based filtering
