ACL
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. These criteria can be specified on a basis of Packet Content, MAC
address, or IP address.
Due to a chipset limitation, the Switch supports a maximum of 12 access profiles. The rules used to define the access
profiles are limited to a total of 1536 rules for the Switch.
