Access Profile Table
Access profiles allow you to establish criteria to determine whether or not the Switch will forward packets based on the
information contained in each packet's header.
Creating an access profile is divided into two basic parts. The first is to specify which part or parts of a frame the Switch will
examine, such as the MAC source address or the IP destination address. The second part is entering the criteria the Switch will use
to determine what to do with the frame.
To display the currently configured Access Profiles on the Switch click ACL > Access Profile Table .
Figure 9- 1. Access Profile Table window
To add an entry to the Access Profile Table, click the Add button. This will open the Access Profile Configuration window, as
shown below. There are two Access Profile Configuration windows; one for Ethernet (or MAC address-based) profile
configuration and one for IP address-based profile configuration. You can switch between the three Access Profile Configuration
windows by using the Type drop-down menu or clear all entries by clicking the Clear All button. The window shown below is
the Access Profile Configuration window for Ethernet.
Note: The Profile ID is used for relative priority for an Access Profile should a conflict arise between a
rule created in one profile and a rule created in a different profile. Please read the CLI Reference
Manual chapter discussing Access Control List (ACL) Commands.
