6-21 Access Profile Table
Configuring the 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.These criteria can be specified on a basis of VLAN, MAC address or IP address.
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.The entire process is
described below in two parts.
To display the currently configured Access Profiles on the Switch, open the
Configuration
folder and click on the
Access Profile Table
link.This will open
the
Access Profile Table
page, as shown below.
