A
ACL (Access
Control List)
A collection of rule sets, rules, conditions, and actions that are compared against network
traffic to determine if an action should be taken on the traffic.
ACL action A single action that can be configured in an ACL rule. The action is the enforced result after
network traffic is successfully matched against one or more ACL conditions.
ACL
conditions
Individual network traffic conditions that can be configured in an ACL rule. Some examples
of ACL conditions are source/destination addresses that match network traffic, and IPToS bits
with a specific value. If multiple conditions are configured in a rule, the conditions are ANDed.
ACL rule set
A collection of one or more rules that are configured to create an ACL.
ACL rules A collection of conditions and an action that are compared to network traffic. If the comparison
of the rule to the network traffic results in a match, then the action is enforced. If multiple rules
are configured in a rule set, each rule is ORed.
