Defining Access Control
Access Control Lists (ACL) allow network managers to define classification actions and rules for specific ingress
ports. Your switch supports up to 256 ACLs. Packets entering an ingress port, with an active ACL, are either
admitted or denied entry. If they are denied entry, the user can disable the port. ACLs are composed of access
control entries (ACEs) that are made of the filters that determine traffic classifications. The total number of ACEs
that can be defined in all ACLs together is 256.
