ACL
Introduction
L2 Access control list (ACL) is a list of permissions attached to an object. The list specifies who
or what is allowed to access the object and what operations are allowed to be performed on the
object.
L2 ACL function allows user to configure a few rules to reject packets from the specific ingress
ports or all ports. These rules will check the packets’ source MAC address and destination
MAC address. If packets match these rules, the system will do the actions “deny”. “deny” means
rejecting these packets.
The Action Resolution engine collects the information (action and metering results) from the hit
entries: if more than one rule matches, the actions and meter/counters are taken from the policy
associated with the matched rule with highest priority.

1. Filter a specific source MAC address.

3. Filter a range of source MAC address.
Command: source mac MACADDR MACADDR
The second MACADDR is a mask, for example: ffff.ffff.0000
4. Filter a range of destination MAC address.
Command: destination mac MACADDR MACADDR
The second MACADDR is a mask, for example: ffff.ffff.0000
