Access Control Lists 3

Binding a Port to an Access Control List

After configuring Access Control Lists (ACL), you should bind them to the ports that need to filter traffic. You can assign one IP access list to any port, but you can only assign one MAC access list to all the ports on the switch.

Command Usage

You must configure a mask for an ACL rule before you can bind it to a port.

This switch only supports ACLs for ingress filtering. You can only bind one IP ACL to any port, and one MAC ACL globally, for ingress filtering.

Command Attributes

Port – Fixed port or SFP module. (Range: 1-26)

IP – Specifies the IP Access List to enable for a port.

MAC – Specifies the MAC Access List to enable globally.

IN – ACL for ingress packets.

ACL Name – Name of the ACL.

Web – Click Security, ACL, Port Binding. Mark the Enabled field for the port you want to bind to an ACL, select the required ACL from the drop-down list, then click Apply.
