Software Supported Access Control Lists (ACLs) Access Control Lists (ACLs) are Quality of Service (QoS) policies used to control whether or not packets are allowed or denied at the switch or router interface. ACLs are sometimes referred to as filtering lists. ACLs are distinguished by the kind of traffic they filter. In a QoS policy rule, the type of traffic is speci- fied in the policy condition. The policy action determines whether the traffic is allowed or denied. In general, the types of AC

Software Supported TCP connection rules—Allows the determination of an established TCP connection by examining TCP flags found in the TCP header of the packet. Two condition parameters are available for defining a TCP connection ACL: established and tcpflags. Early ARP discard—ARP packets destined for other hosts are discarded to reduce processing over- head and exposure to ARP DoS attacks. No configuration is required to use this feature, it is always available and active on the switch.

Software Supported Authenticated Switch Access Authenticated Switch Access (ASA) is a way of authenticating users who want to manage the switch. With authenticated access, all switch login attempts using the console or modem port, Telnet, FTP, SNMP, or HTTP require authentication via the local user database or via a third-party server. The type of server may be an authentication-only mechanism or an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) mecha- nism. AAA servers are able to provi

Software Supported Basic IPv4 Routing Internet Protocol (IP) is a network-layer (Layer 3) protocol that contains addressing and control informa- tion that allow packets to be forwarded on a network. IP is the primary network-layer protocol in the Inter- net protocol suite. Along with the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), IP represents the heart of the Internet protocols. IP is associated with several Layer 3 and Layer 4 protocols. These protocols are built into the base code loaded on the s

Software Supported BPDU Shutdown Ports It is possible to configure a global UserPorts profile, as described in “ACL & Layer 3 Security”, to moni- tor BPDU on user ports. Such a profile also determines whether user ports will filter BPDU or will admin- istratively shutdown when BPDU are received on the port. Note that this functionality only applies to ports that are designated as members of the UserPorts port group. A port configured to administratively shutdown when BPDU are detected will gene
