Configure an IPv6 ACL
An IPv6 ACL consists of a set of rules that are matched sequentially against a packet. When
a packet meets the match criteria of a rule, the specified rule action (Permit or Deny) is taken,
and the additional rules are not checked for a match. You must specify the interfaces to
which an IPv6 ACL applies, as well as whether it applies to inbound or outbound traffic.
Multiple steps are involved in defining an IPv6 ACL and applying it to the switch:
1. Add an IPv6 ACL ID (see
Configure an IPv6 ACL on page 376).
An IPv6 ACL must start with a name string that is up to 31 alphanumeric characters in
length. The name must start with an alphabetic character
.
2. Create an IPv6 rule (see Configure rules for an IPv6 ACL on page 379).
3. Associate the IPv6 ACL with one or more interfaces (see
Configure IP ACL interface
bindings on page 385).
You can view or delete IPv6 ACL configurations in the IP ACL Binding table (see
View or
delete IP ACL bindings in the IP ACL binding table on page 387.
Add an IPv6 ACL
To add an IPv6 ACL:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see
Change the default IP address of the
switch on page 13.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password
field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
