Examples of Router ACLs and VLAN Maps Applied to VLANs

This section gives examples of applying router ACLs and VLAN maps to a VLAN for switched, routed,

and multicast packets. Although the following illustrations show packets being forwarded to their

destination, each time the packet's path crosses a line indicating a VLAN map or an ACL, it is also

possible that the packet might be dropped, rather than forwarded.

within the VLAN without being routed or forwarded are only subject to the VLAN map of the input

Whenever possible, try to write the ACL with all entries having a single action except for the final,

default action of the other type. That is, write the ACL using one of these two forms:

deny ip any any

permit ip any any

To define multiple actions in an ACL (permit, deny), group each action type together to reduce the

number of entries.

Avoid including Layer 4 information in an ACL; adding this information complicates the merging

process. The best merge results are obtained if the ACLs are filtered based on IP addresses (source

and destination) and not on the full flow (source IP address, destination IP address, protocol, and

protocol ports). It is also helpful to use don't care bits in the IP address, whenever possible.

If you need to specify the full-flow mode and the ACL contains both IP ACEs and TCP/UDP/ICMP

ACEs with Layer 4 information, put the Layer 4 ACEs at the end of the list. This gives priority to

the filtering of traffic based on IP addresses.
