Create ACL Window
This window appears when you click Create in the ACL window. Use it
to create an ACL by creating one or more Access Control
Elements (ACEs) for the ACL.
You can modify or delete any ACEs you create if you have not clicked OK
in this window. If you want to create, modify, or delete ACEs beyond this point,
you must use the Modify ACL window.
To
create an ACE:
- Select an ACL type from the
ACL Type list.
The Standard IP type blocks or allows packets
based on their source IP address.
The Extended IP type gives you
finer control over which IP packets are filtered and which are not.
The MAC
Extended type blocks or allows packets based on their source and destination
MAC addresses.
- Enter a name or number in the ACL Name/Number field.
If you give a number to a standard ACL, it must be in the range 1 to 99 or
1300 to 1999. If you give a number to an extended ACL it must be in the range
100 to 199 or 2000 to 2699. A MAC extended ACL must have an alphabetic name;
however, the name can contain numeric characters.
- Click Create.
You see either the Create ACE - Standard window, the Create
ACE - Extended window, or the Create ACE - MAC Extended window, depending
on the ACL type you chose.
When you have finished making your specifications in one
of these windows, you return to the ACL Create - Type Selection Window. You can
then create another ACE or click OK to complete the ACL creation process.
To modify an ACE:
- Select an ACE from ACE List.
- Click Modify.
The Modify ACE - Standard window, the Modify ACE - Extended window, or the
Modify ACE - MAC Extended window appears, depending on the ACL type that the
ACE belongs to. The windows contain the same fields that the Create ACE windows
contain. In this case, however, the fields show the settings that you chose
for the ACE. You can modify any of the settings.
- Change your specifications as needed and click OK.
You return to the Create ACE window.
To delete an ACE:
- Select
an ACE from ACE List.
- Click Delete.
