Access Control Lists

Access Control Lists (ACLs) are used for limiting or permitting network traffic based on a variety of port, network, and traffic characteristics.

Use the ACL Configuration Table window to search for existing ACLs to view or edit, or to launch the window for configuring a new ACL.

Once ACLs or ACL sets are defined, see “Virtual Switch Groups ACL QoS” on page 100 for assigning them to VSGs.

Also see “Access Control List Sets” on page 111 for information on grouping ACLs together for quicker application.
