ACL Name
Select the ACL from the list for which a rule is being created.
Sequence
Enter the sequence number which signifies the order of the specified ACL
relative to other ACLs assigned to the selected interface. The valid range is
from 1 to 2147483647, 1 being processed first.
Action
Select what action to take if a packet matches the criteria.
Permit: Forwards packets that meet the ACL criteria.
Deny: Drops packets that meet the ACL criteria.
Protocol
Select Any, Protocol ID, or Select from a List in the drop-down menu.
Any: Check Any to use any protocol.
Protocol ID: Enter the protocol in the ACE to which the packet is matched.
Select from List: Selects the protocol from the list in the provided field.
ICMP: Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP). The ICMP enables the
gateway or destination host to communicate with the source host.
IPinIP: IP in IP encapsulates IP packets to create tunnels between two routers.
This ensures that IP in IP tunnel appears as a single interface, rather than
several separate interfaces.
TCP
:
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). Enables two hosts to communicate
and exchange data streams. TCP guarantees packet delivery, and guarantees
that packets are transmitted and received in the order they are sent. EGP
Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP). Permits exchanging routing information
between two neighboring gateway hosts in an autonomous systems network.
IGP: Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). Enables a routing information exchange
between gateways within an autonomous network.
UDP: User Datagram Protocol (UDP). UDP is a communication protocol that
transmits packets but does not guarantee their delivery.
HMP: The Host Mapping Protocol (HMP) collects network information from
various networks hosts. HMP monitors hosts spread over the Internet as well
as hosts in a single network.
RDP: Reliable Data Protocol (RDP). Provides a reliable data transport service
for packet-based applications.
IPv6: Matches the packet to the IPV6 protocol.
IPv6: Rout: Routing Header for IPv6.
IPv6: Frag:
Fragment Header for IPv6.
RVSP: Matches the packet to the ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP).
