About this document
Understanding Access Control Lists (ACLs) by Mohammed Ali is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Access-list (ACL) is a set of rules that controls network traffic by filtering packets based on the defined rules for incoming or outgoing network traffic. There are two main types of ACLs - standard ACLs which filter based on source IP addresses only and extended ACLs which can filter based on source/destination IPs and ports. ACLs are applied to network interfaces to process packets according to the defined rules before routing packets to their destination.
