Adding an EtherType Access List

Transparent firewall mode only
An EtherType access list is made up of one or more ACEs that specify an EtherType. This section
includes the following topics:

Supported EtherTypes

An EtherType ACE controls any EtherType identified by a 16-bit hexadecimal number.
EtherType access lists support Ethernet V2 frames.
802.3-formatted frames are not handled by the access list because they use a length field as opposed to
a type field.
BPDUs, which are handled by the access list, are the only exception: they are SNAP-encapsulated, and
the FWSM is designed to specifically handle BPDUs.
The FWSM receives trunk port (Cisco proprietary) BPDUs because FWSM ports are trunk ports. Trunk
BPDUs have VLAN information inside the payload, so the FWSM modifies the payload with the
outgoing VLAN if you allow BPDUs.
If you use failover, you must allow BPDUs on both interfaces with an EtherType access list to avoid
Note
bridging loops.

Apply Access Lists in Both Directions

Because EtherTypes are connectionless, you need to apply the access list to both interfaces if you want
traffic to pass in both directions.

Implicit Deny at the End of an Access List Does Not Affect IP or ARP Traffic

For EtherType access lists, the implicit deny at the end of the access list does not affect IPv4 traffic or
ARPs; for example, if you allow EtherType 8037, the implicit deny at the end of the access list does not
now block any IP traffic that you previously allowed with an extended access list. IPv4 and ARP traffic
cannot be controlled with an EtherType access list.
