1.2.2 ACL
The APS Series switches access control list (ACL) is probably the most commonly used object in the
IOS. It is used for packet filtering but also for selecting types of traffic to be analyzed, forwarded, or
influenced in some way. The ACLs are divided into EtherTypes, IPv4, ARP protocol, MAC and VLAN
parameters etc. Here we will just go over the standard and extended access lists for TCP/IP. As you
create ACEs for ingress classification, you can assign a policy for each port, the policy number range
from 1-8. However each policy can be applied to any port. This makes it very easy to determine what
type of ACL policy you will be working with.
1.2.2-1 Ports
The section describes how to configure the ACL parameters (ACE) of each switch port. These
parameters will affect frames received on a port unless the frame matches a specific ACE rule.
