Access Control Lists

– 352 –

If no matches are found down to the end of the list, the traffic is

denied. For this reason, frequently hit entries should be placed at the

top of the list. There is an implied deny for traffic that is not explicitly

permitted. Also, note that a single-entry ACL with only one deny entry

has the effect of denying all traffic. You should therefore use at least

one permit statement in an ACL or all traffic will be blocked.
Because the switch stops testing after the first match, the order of the

conditions is critical. If no conditions match, the packet will be denied.

The order in which active ACLs are checked is as follows:

1.

User-defined rules in IP and MAC ACLs for ingress ports are checked in
parallel.

2.

Rules within an ACL are checked in the configured order, from top to
bottom.

3.

If the result of checking an IP ACL is to permit a packet, but the result
of a MAC ACL on the same packet is to deny it, the packet will be

denied (because the decision to deny a packet has a higher priority for

security reasons). A packet will also be denied if the IP ACL denies it

and the MAC ACL accepts it.
