IPv6 Access Control Lists (ACLs)
Introduction

Introduction

An Access Control List (ACL) contains one or more Access Control Entries
(ACEs) specifying the criteria the switch uses to either permit (forward) or
deny (drop) IP packets traversing the switch’s interfaces. This chapter
describes how to configure, apply, and edit static IPv6 ACLs for filtering IPv6
traffic in a network populated with the switches covered by this guide, and
how to monitor IPv6 ACL actions.

N o t e

Because the switches covered by this guide operate in an IPv4/IPv6 dual stack
mode, IPv6 and IPv4 ACLs can operate simultaneously in these switches.
However:

Static IPv6 ACLs and IPv4 ACLs do not filter each other’s traffic.

IPv6 and IPv4 ACEs cannot be configured in the same static ACL.

RADIUS-assigned ACLs can be configured to filter either IPv4 traffic
only, or both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic. Refer to “RADIUS-Assigned ACLs”
on page 8-6.

In this chapter, unless otherwise noted:

The term “ACL” refers to IPv6 ACLs.

Descriptions of ACL operation apply only to IPv6 traffic.

For information on configuring and applying static IPv4 ACLs, refer to the
chapter titled “IPv4 Access Control Lists (ACLs)” in the Access Security Guide
for your switch.
