Chapter 13

Access Control Configuration

Access Control configuration allows you to control different aspects of the
Ethernet traffic as it enters the switch ports and is process through the
switch. You can specify what traffic is permitted or denied to flow through
the switch by setting up specific filter criteria at an ingress port. You can
also manage the switching priority of ethernet packets. All of this is done
by specifying policies that define the filtering and priority behavior.

Note

Before you specify the Access Control policies, be sure to configure
the QoS parameters. The QoS entries may have a direct affect on
each policy’s behavior. For more information, see Chapter 12,
“Quality of Service (CoS)” on page 167.

Before a policy can be defined, you need to specify certain ACL
configuration information. This information must be entered sequentially
on the following web pages:

“Classifier” on page 180

“Profile Action” on page 185

“In-Profile Action” on page 189

“Out-Profile Action” on page 193

“Port List” on page 197

With the unique index number from each of these web pages, you can
configure a “Policy” on page 200

If you define multiple policies for different ports, you can go to “Policy
Sequence” on page 205
to display the order that policies are applied to
each port.
