Creating Standard Access Rules

To create standard access rules:

  1. In the navigation pane, expand the Routing > IP > Configuration folders, and then click Access Lists.
  2. The IP Access List Web page is displayed in the content pane. See Figure�134.

Note: The IP Access List displays all standard and extended access rules that have been created. If no rules have been created, the following statement displays: No IP Access Rules are currently configured.

Due to its size, Figure�134 shows the Access List Web page split in two separate sections.

The switch supports a maximum total of 512 access control rules, regardless of the number of access lists. For example, you could create the following three ACLs:

Parameter
Description
Access List Name
The Avaya Multiservice switch supports ACL names up to 32 characters (Alpha-Numeric). Spaces are allowed in the names but are not recommended. Instead of spaces, use the underscore "_" character.
See "Naming Conventions for ACLs" for more information.
Access Rule Index
Enter the sequence number for each new rule you create. Index numbers can be 1 through 512. Packets are compared against rules in ascending index order.

Note: Entering a new rule may override other rules. Review your current configuration prior to creating new access list rules.

Access Type
Select the method of handling incoming datagrams based on the IP access type. Options are:
  • Deny/Filter - Allows you to filter out (drop) packets based on the specified configuration.
  • Permit/Fwd pri8 (high) to pri1 (low) - Allows you to prioritize traffic based on the specified configuration.
  • Permit/Fwd with no change in priority - Allows you to forward traffic with no change in priority.
Source Subnet
  • Source Address - Enter the IP address that you want to deny or grant access to the switch. The Wildcard will determine how the address is evaluated.
  • Source Address Wildcard - Enter the Wildcard for this address. For more information on wildcards, see "What are Wildcards?" earlier in this chapter.

  1. Click CREATE to save your changes, or CANCEL to restore previous settings.
