ACL Tab - MAC Based ACL
The MAC Based ACL screen allows a MAC based ACL to be defined. ACEs can be added only if the ACL is not bound to an interface.
ACL Name. Displays the
New ACL Name. Specifies a new
Delete ACL. Deletes the selected ACL.
Action. Indicates the ACL forwarding action. Possible field values are:
•Permit. Forwards packets which meet the ACL criteria.
•Deny. Drops packets which meet the ACL criteria.
•Shutdown. Drops packet that meet the ACL criteria, and disables the port to which the packet was addressed.
Source MAC Address. Matches the source MAC address to which packets are addressed to the ACE.
Wildcard Mask. Defines the source IP address wildcard mask. Wildcard masks specify which bits are used and which bits are ignored. A wild card mask of 255.255.255.255 indicates that no bit is important. A wildcard of
0.0.0.0indicates that all the bits are important. For example, if the source IP address 149.36.184.198 and the wildcard mask is 255.36.184.00, the first eight bits of the IP address are ignored, while the last eight bits are used.
Dest. MAC Address. Matches the destination MAC address to which packets are addressed to the ACE.
Wildcard Mask. Defines the destination IP address wildcard mask.
VLAN ID. Matches the packet’s VLAN ID to the ACE. The possible field values are 2 to 4094.

The Add to List button adds the configured MAC Based ACLs to the MAC Based ACL Table at the bottom of the screen.
