with an active ACL, are either admitted or denied entry and the ingress port is
disabled. If they are denied entry, the user can disable the port.

DHCP Snooping
DHCP Snooping expands network security by providing firewall security
between untrusted interfaces and DHCP servers. By enabling DHCP
Snooping, network administrators can differentiate between trusted
interfaces connected to end-users or DHCP servers and untrusted interfaces
located beyond the network firewall.
