Rules
You can configure the rules for the MAC Access Control Lists created using the MAC Access Control List Con-
figuration page. The fields on this page varies depending on the current step in the rule configuration process.
Use the MAC ACL Rule Configuration page to define rules for MAC based ACLs. The access list definition in-
cludes rules that specify whether traffic matching the criteria is forwarded normally or discarded. A default
“deny all” rule is the last rule of every list. The fields available on the configuration page depend on whether
the rule action is permit or deny, and whether you select Create Rule or an existing rule from the
Rule
field.
