provide traffic flow control, restrict contents of routing updates, decide which types of traffic
are forwarded or blocked, and above all provide security for the network. ProSafe Managed
switch software supports IPv4, IPv6, and MAC ACLs.
You first create an IPv4 based or IPv6 based or MAC-based ACL ID. Then, you create a rule
and assign it to a unique
ACL ID. Next, you define the rules, which can identify protocols,
source, and destination IP and MAC addresses, and other packet-matching criteria. Finally,
use the ID number to assign the ACL to a port or to a LAG.
Use the ACL Wizard to Create a Simple ACL
The ACL Wizard helps you create a simple ACL and apply it to the selected ports easily and
quickly. You must select an ACL type to use when you create an ACL. Then add an ACL rule
to this ACL and apply this ACL on the selected ports. The ACL Wizard allows you to create
the ACL, but does not allow you to modify it. To modify the ACL, go to the ACL Configuration
page. See
Configure an IP ACL on page 611.
To use the ACL Wizard to create a simple ACL:
1. Launch a web browser
