3-8. ACL

The SM8P-SFP switch 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 is 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.
