you would then execute the following command to download the file to
the switch’s startup-config file:

If a transport error occurs, the switch does not execute the command and the
ACL is not configured.
3. Next, assign the new ACL to the intended interface which, in this example,

HPswitch(config)# interface 2 access-group 160 in
4. Inspect the effect of the ACL on the switch’s per-port resources.
ACL 160 used six per-port rules and 5 ACL masks on port 2. This means that ACL 160 could be
replaced with a larger ACL that uses up to three more masks. The switch reserves eight masks
per-port for ACL and IGMP use. (When enabled in a VLAN, IGMP uses one mask per-port on all
ports on the switch.)
