Configuring Network Security with ACLs
This chapter describes how to configure network security on the switch by using access control lists (ACLs). Unless otherwise noted, the term switch refers to a standalone switch and to a switch stack.
Note Information in this chapter about IP ACLs is specific to IP Version 4 (IPv4). For information about IPv6 ACLs, see Chapter 36 "Configuring IPv6 ACLs."
For complete syntax and usage information for the commands used in this chapter, see the command reference for this release, see the "Configuring IP Services" section in the "IP Addressing and Services" chapter of the Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide, Release 12.2, and the Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 1 of 3: Addressing and Services, Release 12.2.
The switch also supports Cisco TrustSec Security Group Tag (SCT) Exchange Protocol (SXP). This feature supports security group access control lists (SGACLs), which define ACL policies for a group of devices instead of an IP address. The SXP control protocol allows tagging packets with SCTs without a hardware upgrade, and runs between access layer devices at the Cisco TrustSec domain edge and distribution layer devices within the Cisco TrustSec domain. The blade switches operate as access layer switches in the Cisco TrustSec network.
For more information about Cisco TrustSec, see the "Cisco TrustSec Switch Configuration Guide" at this URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/trustsec/configuration/guide/trustsec.html
The sections on SXP define the capabilities supported on the blade switches.
This chapter consists of these sections:
•Creating Named MAC Extended ACLs
•Using VLAN Maps with Router ACLs
•Displaying IPv4 ACL Configuration
Understanding ACLs
Packet filtering can help limit network traffic and restrict network use by certain users or devices. ACLs filter traffic as it passes through a router or switch and permit or deny packets crossing specified interfaces or VLANs. An ACL is a sequential collection of permit and deny conditions that apply to packets. When a packet is received on an interface, the switch compares the fields in the packet against any applied ACLs to verify that the packet has the required permissions to be forwarded, based on the criteria specified in the access lists. One by one, it tests packets against the conditions in an access list. The first match decides whether the switch accepts or rejects the packets. Because the switch stops testing after the first match, the order of conditions in the list is critical. If no conditions match, the switch rejects the packet. If there are no restrictions, the switch forwards the packet; otherwise, the switch drops the packet. The switch can use ACLs on all packets it forwards, including packets bridged within a VLAN.
You configure access lists on a router or Layer 3 switch to provide basic security for your network. If you do not configure ACLs, all packets passing through the switch could be allowed onto all parts of the network. You can use ACLs to control which hosts can access different parts of a network or to decide which types of traffic are forwarded or blocked at router interfaces. For example, you can allow e-mail traffic to be forwarded but not Telnet traffic. ACLs can be configured to block inbound traffic, outbound traffic, or both.
An ACL contains an ordered list of access control entries (ACEs). Each ACE specifies permit or deny and a set of conditions the packet must satisfy in order to match the ACE. The meaning of permit or deny depends on the context in which the ACL is used.
The switch supports IP ACLs and Ethernet (MAC) ACLs:
•IP ACLs filter IPv4 traffic, including TCP, User Datagram Protocol (UDP), Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP), and Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP).
•Ethernet ACLs filter non-IP traffic.
This switch also supports quality of service (QoS) classification ACLs. For more information, see the "Classification Based on QoS ACLs" section.
These sections contain this conceptual information:
•Handling Fragmented and Unfragmented Traffic
Supported ACLs
The switch supports three applications of ACLs to filter traffic:
•Port ACLs access-control traffic entering a Layer 2 interface. The switch does not support port ACLs in the outbound direction. You can apply only one IP access list and one MAC access list to a Layer 2 interface. For more information, see the "Port ACLs" section.
•Router ACLs access-control routed traffic between VLANs and are applied to Layer 3 interfaces in a specific direction (inbound or outbound). For more information, see the "Router ACLs" section.
•VLAN ACLs or VLAN maps access-control all packets (bridged and routed). You can use VLAN maps to filter traffic between devices in the same VLAN. VLAN maps are configured to provide access control based on Layer 3 addresses for IPv4. Unsupported protocols are access-controlled through MAC addresses using Ethernet ACEs. After a VLAN map is applied to a VLAN, all packets (routed or bridged) entering the VLAN are checked against the VLAN map. Packets can either enter the VLAN through a switch port or through a routed port after being routed. For more information, see the "VLAN Maps" section.
You can use input port ACLs, router ACLs, and VLAN maps on the same switch. However, a port ACL takes precedence over a router ACL or VLAN map.
•When both an input port ACL and a VLAN map are applied, incoming packets received on ports with a port ACL applied are filtered by the port ACL. Other packets are filtered by the VLAN map
•When an input router ACL and input port ACL exist in an switch virtual interface (SVI), incoming packets received on ports to which a port ACL is applied are filtered by the port ACL. Incoming routed IP packets received on other ports are filtered by the router ACL. Other packets are not filtered.
•When an output router ACL and input port ACL exist in an SVI, incoming packets received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are filtered by the port ACL. Outgoing routed IP packets are filtered by the router ACL. Other packets are not filtered.
•When a VLAN map, input router ACL, and input port ACL exist in an SVI, incoming packets received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are only filtered by the port ACL. Incoming routed IP packets received on other ports are filtered by both the VLAN map and the router ACL. Other packets are filtered only by the VLAN map.
•When a VLAN map, output router ACL, and input port ACL exist in an SVI, incoming packets received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are only filtered by the port ACL. Outgoing routed IP packets are filtered by both the VLAN map and the router ACL. Other packets are filtered only by the VLAN map.
If IEEE 802.1Q tunneling is configured on an interface, any IEEE 802.1Q encapsulated IP packets received on the tunnel port can be filtered by MAC ACLs, but not by IP ACLs. This is because the switch does not recognize the protocol inside the IEEE 802.1Q header. This restriction applies to router ACLs, port ACLs, and VLAN maps. For more information about IEEE 802.1Q tunneling, see Chapter 17 "Configuring IEEE 802.1Q and Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling"
Port ACLs
Port ACLs are ACLs that are applied to Layer 2 interfaces on a switch. Port ACLs are supported only on physical interfaces and not on EtherChannel interfaces and can be applied only on interfaces in the inbound direction. These access lists are supported:
•Standard IP access lists using source addresses
•Extended IP access lists using source and destination addresses and optional protocol type information
•MAC extended access lists using source and destination MAC addresses and optional protocol type information
The switch examines ACLs associated with all inbound features configured on a given interface and permits or denies packet forwarding based on how the packet matches the entries in the ACL. In this way, ACLs control access to a network or to part of a network. Figure 35-1 is an example of using port ACLs to control access to a network when all servers are in the same VLAN. ACLs applied at the Layer 2 input would allow Blade Server A to access the Human Resources network, but prevent Blade Server B from accessing the same network. Port ACLs can only be applied to Layer 2 interfaces in the inbound direction.
Figure 35-1 Using ACLs to Control Traffic to a Network
When you apply a port ACL to a trunk port, the ACL filters traffic on all VLANs present on the trunk port. When you apply a port ACL to a port with voice VLAN, the ACL filters traffic on both data and voice VLANs.
With port ACLs, you can filter IP traffic by using IP access lists and non-IP traffic by using MAC addresses. You can filter both IP and non-IP traffic on the same Layer 2 interface by applying both an IP access list and a MAC access list to the interface.
Note You cannot apply more than one IP access list and one MAC access list to a Layer 2 interface. If an IP access list or MAC access list is already configured on a Layer 2 interface and you apply a new IP access list or MAC access list to the interface, the new ACL replaces the previously configured one.
Router ACLs
You can apply router ACLs on switch virtual interfaces (SVIs), which are Layer 3 interfaces to VLANs; on physical Layer 3 interfaces; and on Layer 3 EtherChannel interfaces. You apply router ACLs on interfaces for specific directions (inbound or outbound). You can apply one router ACL in each direction on an interface.
One ACL can be used with multiple features for a given interface, and one feature can use multiple ACLs. When a single router ACL is used by multiple features, it is examined multiple times.
The switch supports these access lists for IPv4 traffic:
•Standard IP access lists use source addresses for matching operations.
•Extended IP access lists use source and destination addresses and optional protocol type information for matching operations.
As with port ACLs, the switch examines ACLs associated with features configured on a given interface. However, router ACLs are supported in both directions. As packets enter the switch on an interface, ACLs associated with all inbound features configured on that interface are examined. After packets are routed and before they are forwarded to the next hop, all ACLs associated with outbound features configured on the egress interface are examined.
ACLs permit or deny packet forwarding based on how the packet matches the entries in the ACL, and can be used to control access to a network or to part of a network. In Figure 35-1, ACLs applied at the router input allow Host A to access the Human Resources network, but prevent Host B from accessing the same network.
VLAN Maps
Use VLAN ACLs or VLAN maps to access-control all traffic. You can apply VLAN maps to all packets that are routed into or out of a VLAN or are bridged within a VLAN in the switch or switch stack.
Use VLAN maps for security packet filtering. VLAN maps are not defined by direction (input or output).
You can configure VLAN maps to match Layer 3 addresses for IPv4 traffic.
All non-IP protocols are access-controlled through MAC addresses and Ethertype using MAC VLAN maps. (IP traffic is not access controlled by MAC VLAN maps.) You can enforce VLAN maps only on packets going through the switch; you cannot enforce VLAN maps on traffic between hosts on a hub or on another switch connected to this switch.
With VLAN maps, forwarding of packets is permitted or denied, based on the action specified in the map. Figure 35-2 shows how a VLAN map is applied to prevent a specific type of traffic from Host A in VLAN 10 from being forwarded. You can apply only one VLAN map to a VLAN.
Figure 35-2 Using VLAN Maps to Control Traffic
Handling Fragmented and Unfragmented Traffic
IP packets can be fragmented as they cross the network. When this happens, only the fragment containing the beginning of the packet contains the Layer 4 information, such as TCP or UDP port numbers, ICMP type and code, and so on. All other fragments are missing this information.
Some ACEs do not check Layer 4 information and therefore can be applied to all packet fragments. ACEs that do test Layer 4 information cannot be applied in the standard manner to most of the fragments in a fragmented IP packet. When the fragment contains no Layer 4 information and the ACE tests some Layer 4 information, the matching rules are modified:
•Permit ACEs that check the Layer 3 information in the fragment (including protocol type, such as TCP, UDP, and so on) are considered to match the fragment regardless of what the missing Layer 4 information might have been.
•Deny ACEs that check Layer 4 information never match a fragment unless the fragment contains Layer 4 information.
Consider access list 102, configured with these commands, applied to three fragmented packets:
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any host 10.1.1.1 eq smtp
Switch(config)# access-list 102 deny tcp any host 10.1.1.2 eq telnet
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any host 10.1.1.2
Switch(config)# access-list 102 deny tcp any any
Note In the first and second ACEs in the examples, the eq keyword after the destination address means to test for the TCP-destination-port well-known numbers equaling Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and Telnet, respectively.
•Packet A is a TCP packet from host 10.2.2.2., port 65000, going to host 10.1.1.1 on the SMTP port. If this packet is fragmented, the first fragment matches the first ACE (a permit) as if it were a complete packet because all Layer 4 information is present. The remaining fragments also match the first ACE, even though they do not contain the SMTP port information, because the first ACE only checks Layer 3 information when applied to fragments. The information in this example is that the packet is TCP and that the destination is 10.1.1.1.
•Packet B is from host 10.2.2.2, port 65001, going to host 10.1.1.2 on the Telnet port. If this packet is fragmented, the first fragment matches the second ACE (a deny) because all Layer 3 and Layer 4 information is present. The remaining fragments in the packet do not match the second ACE because they are missing Layer 4 information. Instead, they match the third ACE (a permit).
Because the first fragment was denied, host 10.1.1.2 cannot reassemble a complete packet, so packet B is effectively denied. However, the later fragments that are permitted will consume bandwidth on the network and resources of host 10.1.1.2 as it tries to reassemble the packet.
•Fragmented packet C is from host 10.2.2.2, port 65001, going to host 10.1.1.3, port ftp. If this packet is fragmented, the first fragment matches the fourth ACE (a deny). All other fragments also match the fourth ACE because that ACE does not check any Layer 4 information and because Layer 3 information in all fragments shows that they are being sent to host 10.1.1.3, and the earlier permit ACEs were checking different hosts.
ACLs and Switch Stacks
ACL support is the same for a switch stack as for a standalone switch. ACL configuration information is propagated to all switches in the stack. All switches in the stack, including the stack master, process the information and program their hardware. (For more information about switch stacks, see Chapter 7 "Managing Switch Stacks.")
The stack master performs these ACL functions:
•It processes the ACL configuration and propagates the information to all stack members.
•It distributes the ACL information to any switch that joins the stack.
•If packets must be forwarded by software for any reason (for example, not enough hardware resources), the master switch forwards the packets only after applying ACLs on the packets.
•It programs its hardware with the ACL information it processes.
Stack members perform these ACL functions:
•They receive the ACL information from the master switch and program their hardware.
•They act as standby switches, ready to take over the role of the stack master if the existing master were to fail and they were to be elected as the new stack master.
When a stack master fails and a new stack master is elected, the newly elected master reparses the backed up running configuration. (See Chapter 7 "Managing Switch Stacks.") The ACL configuration that is part of the running configuration is also reparsed during this step. The new stack master distributes the ACL information to all switches in the stack.
Configuring IPv4 ACLs
Configuring IP v4ACLs on the switch is the same as configuring IPv4 ACLs on other Cisco switches and routers. The process is briefly described here. For more detailed information on configuring ACLs, see the "Configuring IP Services" section in the "IP Addressing and Services" chapter of the Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide, Release 12.2. For detailed information about the commands, see the Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 1 of 3: Addressing and Services, Release 12.2.
The switch does not support these Cisco IOS router ACL-related features:
•Non-IP protocol ACLs (see Table 35-1) or bridge-group ACLs
•IP accounting
•Inbound and outbound rate limiting (except with QoS ACLs)
•Reflexive ACLs or dynamic ACLs
•ACL logging for port ACLs and VLAN maps
These are the steps to use IP ACLs on the switch:
Step 1 Create an ACL by specifying an access list number or name and the access conditions.
Step 2 Apply the ACL to interfaces or terminal lines. You can also apply standard and extended IP ACLs to VLAN maps.
These sections contain this configuration information:
•Creating Standard and Extended IPv4 ACLs
•Applying an IPv4 ACL to a Terminal Line
•Applying an IPv4 ACL to an Interface
•Hardware and Software Treatment of IP ACLs
•IPv4 ACL Configuration Examples
Creating Standard and Extended IPv4 ACLs
This section describes IP ACLs. An ACL is a sequential collection of permit and deny conditions. One by one, the switch tests packets against the conditions in an access list. The first match determines whether the switch accepts or rejects the packet. Because the switch stops testing after the first match, the order of the conditions is critical. If no conditions match, the switch denies the packet.
The software supports these types of ACLs or access lists for IPv4:
•Standard IP access lists use source addresses for matching operations.
•Extended IP access lists use source and destination addresses for matching operations and optional protocol-type information for finer granularity of control.
These sections describe access lists and how to create them:
•Creating a Numbered Standard ACL
•Creating a Numbered Extended ACL
•Creating Named Standard and Extended ACLs
Access List Numbers
The number you use to denote your ACL shows the type of access list that you are creating. Table 35-1 lists the access-list number and corresponding access list type and shows whether or not they are supported in the switch. The switch supports IPv4 standard and extended access lists, numbers 1 to 199 and 1300 to 2699.
Note In addition to numbered standard and extended ACLs, you can also create standard and extended named IP ACLs by using the supported numbers. That is, the name of a standard IP ACL can be 1 to 99; the name of an extended IP ACL can be 100 to 199. The advantage of using named ACLs instead of numbered lists is that you can delete individual entries from a named list.
ACL Logging
The switch software can provide logging messages about packets permitted or denied by a standard IP access list. That is, any packet that matches the ACL causes an informational logging message about the packet to be sent to the console. The level of messages logged to the console is controlled by the logging console commands controlling the syslog messages.
Note Because routing is done in hardware and logging is done in software, if a large number of packets match a permit or deny ACE containing a log keyword, the software might not be able to match the hardware processing rate, and not all packets will be logged.
The first packet that triggers the ACL causes a logging message right away, and subsequent packets are collected over 5-minute intervals before they appear or logged. The logging message includes the access list number, whether the packet was permitted or denied, the source IP address of the packet, and the number of packets from that source permitted or denied in the prior 5-minute interval.
Creating a Numbered Standard ACL
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create a numbered standard ACL:
Use the no access-list access-list-number global configuration command to delete the entire ACL. You cannot delete individual ACEs from numbered access lists.
Note When creating an ACL, remember that, by default, the end of the ACL contains an implicit deny statement for all packets that it did not find a match for before reaching the end. With standard access lists, if you omit the mask from an associated IP host address ACL specification, 0.0.0.0 is assumed to be the mask.
This example shows how to create a standard ACL to deny access to IP host 171.69.198.102, permit access to any others, and display the results.
Switch (config)# access-list 2 deny host 171.69.198.102
Switch (config)# access-list 2 permit any
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show access-lists
Standard IP access list 2
10 deny 171.69.198.102
20 permit any
The switch always rewrites the order of standard access lists so that entries with host matches and entries with matches having a don't care mask of 0.0.0.0 are moved to the top of the list, above any entries with non-zero don't care masks. Therefore, in show command output and in the configuration file, the ACEs do not necessarily appear in the order in which they were entered.
After creating a numbered standard IPv4 ACL, you can apply it to terminal lines (see the "Applying an IPv4 ACL to a Terminal Line" section), to interfaces (see the "Applying an IPv4 ACL to an Interface" section), or to VLANs (see the "Configuring VLAN Maps" section).
Creating a Numbered Extended ACL
Although standard ACLs use only source addresses for matching, you can use extended ACL source and destination addresses for matching operations and optional protocol type information for finer granularity of control. When you are creating ACEs in numbered extended access lists, remember that after you create the ACL, any additions are placed at the end of the list. You cannot reorder the list or selectively add or remove ACEs from a numbered list.
Some protocols also have specific parameters and keywords that apply to that protocol.
These IP protocols are supported (protocol keywords are in parentheses in bold):
Authentication Header Protocol (ahp), Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (eigrp), Encapsulation Security Payload (esp), generic routing encapsulation (gre), Internet Control Message Protocol (icmp), Internet Group Management Protocol (igmp), any Interior Protocol (ip), IP in IP tunneling (ipinip), KA9Q NOS-compatible IP over IP tunneling (nos), Open Shortest Path First routing (ospf), Payload Compression Protocol (pcp), Protocol-Independent Multicast (pim), Transmission Control Protocol (tcp), or User Datagram Protocol (udp).
Note ICMP echo-reply cannot be filtered. All other ICMP codes or types can be filtered.
For more details on the specific keywords for each protocol, see these command references:
•Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 1 of 3: Addressing and Services, Release 12.2
•Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 2 of 3: Routing Protocols, Release 12.2
•Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 3 of 3: Multicast, Release 12.2
Note The switch does not support dynamic or reflexive access lists. It also does not support filtering based on the type of service (ToS) minimize-monetary-cost bit.
Supported parameters can be grouped into these categories: TCP, UDP, ICMP, IGMP, or other IP.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create an extended ACL:

Step 1 |
configure terminal |
Enter global configuration mode. |
Step 2 a |
access-list access-list-number Note If you enter a dscp value, you cannot enter tos or precedence. You can enter both a tos and a precedence value with no dscp. |
Define an extended IPv4 access list and the access conditions. The access-list-number is a decimal number from 100 to 199 or 2000 to 2699. Enter deny or permit to specify whether to deny or permit the packet if conditions are matched. For protocol, enter the name or number of an IP protocol: ahp, eigrp, esp, gre, icmp, igmp, igrp, ip, ipinip, nos, ospf, pcp, pim, tcp, or udp, or an integer in the range 0 to 255 representing an IP protocol number. To match any Internet protocol (including ICMP, TCP, and UDP), use the keyword ip. Note This step includes options for most IP protocols. For additional specific parameters for TCP, UDP, ICMP, and IGMP, see steps 2b through 2e. The source is the number of the network or host from which the packet is sent. The source-wildcard applies wildcard bits to the source. The destination is the network or host number to which the packet is sent. The destination-wildcard applies wildcard bits to the destination. Source, source-wildcard, destination, and destination-wildcard can be specified as: •The 32-bit quantity in dotted-decimal format. •The keyword any for 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 (any host). •The keyword host for a single host 0.0.0.0. The other keywords are optional and have these meanings: •precedence—Enter to match packets with a precedence level specified as a number from 0 to 7 or by name: routine (0), priority (1), immediate (2), flash (3), flash-override (4), critical (5), internet (6), network (7). •fragments—Enter to check non-initial fragments. •tos—Enter to match by type of service level, specified by a number from 0 to 15 or a name: normal (0), max-reliability (2), max-throughput (4), min-delay (8). •log—Enter to create an informational logging message to be sent to the console about the packet that matches the entry or log-input to include the input interface in the log entry. •time-range—For an explanation of this keyword, see the "Using Time Ranges with ACLs" section. •dscp—Enter to match packets with the DSCP value specified by a number from 0 to 63, or use the question mark (?) to see a list of available values. |

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} protocol any any [precedence precedence] [tos tos] [fragments] [log] [log-input] [time-range time-range-name] [dscp dscp] |
In access-list configuration mode, define an extended IP access list using an abbreviation for a source and source wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 and an abbreviation for a destination and destination wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255. You can use the any keyword in place of source and destination address and wildcard. |
or |
access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} protocol |
Define an extended IP access list by using an abbreviation for a source and a source wildcard of source 0.0.0.0 and an abbreviation for a destination and destination wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0. You can use the host keyword in place of the source and destination wildcard or mask. |
Step 2b |
access-list access-list-number |
(Optional) Define an extended TCP access list and the access conditions. Enter tcp for Transmission Control Protocol. The parameters are the same as those described in Step 2a, with these exceptions: (Optional) Enter an operator and port to compare source (if positioned after source source-wildcard) or destination (if positioned after destination destination-wildcard) port. Possible operators include eq (equal), gt (greater than), lt (less than), neq (not equal), and range (inclusive range). Operators require a port number (range requires two port numbers separated by a space). Enter the port number as a decimal number (from 0 to 65535) or the name of a TCP port. To see TCP port names, use the ? or see the "Configuring IP Services" section in the "IP Addressing and Services" chapter of the Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide, Release 12.2. Use only TCP port numbers or names when filtering TCP. The other optional keywords have these meanings: •established—Enter to match an established connection. This has the same function as matching on the ack or rst flag. •flag—Enter one of these flags to match by the specified TCP header bits: ack (acknowledge), fin (finish), psh (push), rst (reset), syn (synchronize), or urg (urgent). |
Step 2c |
access-list access-list-number |
(Optional) Define an extended UDP access list and the access conditions. Enter udp for the User Datagram Protocol. The UDP parameters are the same as those described for TCP except that the [operator [port]] port number or name must be a UDP port number or name, and the flag and established parameters are not valid for UDP. |
Step 2d |
access-list access-list-number |
(Optional) Define an extended ICMP access list and the access conditions. Enter icmp for Internet Control Message Protocol. The ICMP parameters are the same as those described for most IP protocols in Step 2a, with the addition of the ICMP message type and code parameters. These optional keywords have these meanings: •icmp-type—Enter to filter by ICMP message type, a number from 0 to 255. •icmp-code—Enter to filter ICMP packets that are filtered by the ICMP message code type, a number from 0 to 255. •icmp-message—Enter to filter ICMP packets by the ICMP message type name or the ICMP message type and code name. To see a list of ICMP message type names and code names, use the ?, or see the "Configuring IP Services" section of the Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide, Release 12.2. |
Step 2e |
access-list access-list-number |
(Optional) Define an extended IGMP access list and the access conditions. Enter igmp for Internet Group Management Protocol. The IGMP parameters are the same as those described for most IP protocols in Step 2a, with this optional parameter. igmp-type—To match IGMP message type, enter a number from 0 to 15, or enter the message name (dvmrp, host-query, host-report, pim, or trace). |
Step 3 |
end |
Return to privileged EXEC mode. |
Step 4 |
show access-lists [number | name] |
Verify the access list configuration. |
Step 5 |
copy running-config startup-config |
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file. |
Use the no access-list access-list-number global configuration command to delete the entire access list. You cannot delete individual ACEs from numbered access lists.
This example shows how to create and display an extended access list to deny Telnet access from any host in network 171.69.198.0 to any host in network 172.20.52.0 and to permit any others. (The eq keyword after the destination address means to test for the TCP destination port number equaling Telnet.)
Switch(config)# access-list 102 deny tcp 171.69.198.0 0.0.0.255 172.20.52.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any any
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show access-lists
Extended IP access list 102
10 deny tcp 171.69.198.0 0.0.0.255 172.20.52.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet
20 permit tcp any any
After an ACL is created, any additions (possibly entered from the terminal) are placed at the end of the list. You cannot selectively add or remove access list entries from a numbered access list.
Note When you are creating an ACL, remember that, by default, the end of the access list contains an implicit deny statement for all packets if it did not find a match before reaching the end.
After creating a numbered extended ACL, you can apply it to terminal lines (see the "Applying an IPv4 ACL to a Terminal Line" section), to interfaces (see the "Applying an IPv4 ACL to an Interface" section), or to VLANs (see the "Configuring VLAN Maps" section).
Resequencing ACEs in an ACL
Sequence numbers for the entries in an access list are automatically generated when you create a new ACL. You can use the ip access-list resequence global configuration command to edit the sequence numbers in an ACL and change the order in which ACEs are applied. For example, if you add a new ACE to an ACL, it is placed at the bottom of the list. By changing the sequence number, you can move the ACE to a different position in the ACL.
Creating Named Standard and Extended ACLs
You can identify IPv4 ACLs with an alphanumeric string (a name) rather than a number. You can use named ACLs to configure more IPv4 access lists in a router than if you were to use numbered access lists. If you identify your access list with a name rather than a number, the mode and command syntax are slightly different. However, not all commands that use IP access lists accept a named access list.
Note The name you give to a standard or extended ACL can also be a number in the supported range of access list numbers. That is, the name of a standard IP ACL can be 1 to 99; the name of an extended IP ACL can be 100 to 199. The advantage of using named ACLs instead of numbered lists is that you can delete individual entries from a named list.
Consider these guidelines and limitations before configuring named ACLs:
•Not all commands that accept a numbered ACL accept a named ACL. ACLs for packet filters and route filters on interfaces can use a name. VLAN maps also accept a name.
•A standard ACL and an extended ACL cannot have the same name.
•Numbered ACLs are also available, as described in the "Creating Standard and Extended IPv4 ACLs" section.
•You can use standard and extended ACLs (named or numbered) in VLAN maps.
•With IPv4 QoS ACLs, if you enter the class-map {match-all | match-any} class-map-name global configuration command, you can enter these match commands:
–match access-group acl-name
Note The ACL must be an extended named ACL.
–match input-interface interface-id-list
–match ip dscp dscp-list
–match ip precedence ip-precedence-list
You cannot enter the match access-group acl-index command.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create a standard ACL using names:
To remove a named standard ACL, use the no ip access-list standard name global configuration command.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create an extended ACL using names:

---|---|---|
Step 1 |
configure terminal |
Enter global configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
ip access-list extended name |
Define an extended IPv4 access list using a name, and enter access-list configuration mode. The name can be a number from 100 to 199. |

{deny | permit} protocol {source [source-wildcard] | host source | any} {destination [destination-wildcard] | host destination | any} [precedence precedence] [tos tos] [established] [log] [time-range time-range-name] |
In access-list configuration mode, specify the conditions allowed or denied. Use the log keyword to get access list logging messages, including violations. See the "Creating a Numbered Extended ACL" section for definitions of protocols and other keywords. •host source—A source and source wildcard of source 0.0.0.0. •host destination—A destination and destination wildcard of destination 0.0.0.0. •any—A source and source wildcard or destination and destination wildcard of 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255. |

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file. |
To remove a named extended ACL, use the no ip access-list extended name global configuration command.
When you are creating standard extended ACLs, remember that, by default, the end of the ACL contains an implicit deny statement for everything if it did not find a match before reaching the end. For standard ACLs, if you omit the mask from an associated IP host address access list specification, 0.0.0.0 is assumed to be the mask.
After you create an ACL, any additions are placed at the end of the list. You cannot selectively add ACL entries to a specific ACL. However, you can use no permit and no deny access-list configuration mode commands to remove entries from a named ACL. This example shows how you can delete individual ACEs from the named access list border-list:
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended border-list
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# no permit ip host 10.1.1.3 any
Being able to selectively remove lines from a named ACL is one reason you might use named ACLs instead of numbered ACLs.
After creating a named ACL, you can apply it to interfaces (see the "Applying an IPv4 ACL to an Interface" section) or to VLANs (see the "Configuring VLAN Maps" section).
Using Time Ranges with ACLs
You can selectively apply extended ACLs based on the time of day and the week by using the time-range global configuration command. First, define a time-range name and set the times and the dates or the days of the week in the time range. Then enter the time-range name when applying an ACL to set restrictions to the access list. You can use the time range to define when the permit or deny statements in the ACL are in effect, for example, during a specified time period or on specified days of the week. The time-range keyword and argument are referenced in the named and numbered extended ACL task tables in the previous sections, the "Creating Standard and Extended IPv4 ACLs" section, and the "Creating Named Standard and Extended ACLs" section.
These are some of the many possible benefits of using time ranges:
•You have more control over permitting or denying a user access to resources, such as an application (identified by an IP address/mask pair and a port number).
•You can control logging messages. ACL entries can be set to log traffic only at certain times of the day. Therefore, you can simply deny access without needing to analyze many logs generated during peak hours.
Time-based access lists trigger CPU activity because the new configuration of the access list must be merged with other features and the combined configuration loaded into the hardware memory. For this reason, you should be careful not to have several access lists configured to take affect in close succession (within a small number of minutes of each other.)
Note The time range relies on the switch system clock; therefore, you need a reliable clock source. We recommend that you use Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize the switch clock. For more information, see the "Managing the System Time and Date" section.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a time-range parameter for an ACL:
Repeat the steps if you have multiple items that you want in effect at different times.
To remove a configured time-range limitation, use the no time-range time-range-name global configuration command.
This example shows how to configure time ranges for workhours and to configure January 1, 2006, as a company holiday and to verify your configuration.
Switch(config)# time-range workhours
Switch(config-time-range)# periodic weekdays 8:00 to 12:00
Switch(config-time-range)# periodic weekdays 13:00 to 17:00
Switch(config-time-range)# exit
Switch(config)# time-range new_year_day_2006
Switch(config-time-range)# absolute start 00:00 1 Jan 2006 end 23:59 1 Jan 2006
Switch(config-time-range)# end
Switch# show time-range
time-range entry: new_year_day_2003 (inactive)
absolute start 00:00 01 January 2006 end 23:59 01 January 2006
time-range entry: workhours (inactive)
periodic weekdays 8:00 to 12:00
periodic weekdays 13:00 to 17:00
To apply a time range, enter the time-range name in an extended ACL that can implement time ranges. This example shows how to create and verify extended access list 188 that denies TCP traffic from any source to any destination during the defined holiday times and permits all TCP traffic during work hours.
Switch(config)# access-list 188 deny tcp any any time-range new_year_day_2006
Switch(config)# access-list 188 permit tcp any any time-range workhours
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show access-lists
Extended IP access list 188
10 deny tcp any any time-range new_year_day_2006 (inactive)
20 permit tcp any any time-range workhours (inactive)
This example uses named ACLs to permit and deny the same traffic.
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended deny_access
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny tcp any any time-range new_year_day_2006
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended may_access
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any any time-range workhours
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# end
Switch# show ip access-lists
Extended IP access list lpip_default
10 permit ip any any
Extended IP access list deny_access
10 deny tcp any any time-range new_year_day_2006 (inactive)
Extended IP access list may_access
10 permit tcp any any time-range workhours (inactive)
Including Comments in ACLs
You can use the remark keyword to include comments (remarks) about entries in any IP standard or extended ACL. The remarks make the ACL easier for you to understand and scan. Each remark line is limited to 100 characters.
The remark can go before or after a permit or deny statement. You should be consistent about where you put the remark so that it is clear which remark describes which permit or deny statement. For example, it would be confusing to have some remarks before the associated permit or deny statements and some remarks after the associated statements.
To include a comment for IP numbered standard or extended ACLs, use the access-list access-list number remark remark global configuration command. To remove the remark, use the no form of this command.
In this example, the server that belongs to Jones is allowed access, and the workstation that belongs to Smith is not allowed access:
Switch(config)# access-list 1 remark Permit only Jones server through
Switch(config)# access-list 1 permit 171.69.2.88
Switch(config)# access-list 1 remark Do not allow Smith server through
Switch(config)# access-list 1 deny 171.69.3.13
For an entry in a named IP ACL, use the remark access-list configuration command. To remove the remark, use the no form of this command.
In this example, the Jones subnet is not allowed to use outbound Telnet:
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended telnetting
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# remark Do not allow Jones subnet to telnet out
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny tcp host 171.69.2.88 any eq telnet
Applying an IPv4 ACL to a Terminal Line
You can use numbered ACLs to control access to one or more terminal lines. You cannot apply named ACLs to lines. You must set identical restrictions on all the virtual terminal lines because a user can attempt to connect to any of them.
For procedures for applying ACLs to interfaces, see the "Applying an IPv4 ACL to an Interface" section. For applying ACLs to VLANs, see the "Configuring VLAN Maps" section.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to restrict incoming and outgoing connections between a virtual terminal line and the addresses in an ACL:
To remove an ACL from a terminal line, use the no access-class access-list-number {in | out} line configuration command.
Applying an IPv4 ACL to an Interface
This section describes how to apply IPv4 ACLs to network interfaces. Note these guidelines:
•Apply an ACL only to inbound Layer 2 interfaces. Apply an ACL to either outbound or inbound Layer 3 interfaces.
•When controlling access to an interface, you can use a named or numbered ACL.
•If you apply an ACL to a Layer 2 interface that is a member of a VLAN, the Layer 2 (port) ACL takes precedence over a VLAN map applied to the VLAN. Incoming packets received on the Layer 2 port are always filtered by the port ACL.
•If you apply an ACL to a Layer 2 interface that is a member of a VLAN, the Layer 2 (port) ACL takes precedence over an input Layer 3 ACL applied to the VLAN interface or a VLAN map applied to the VLAN. Incoming packets received on the Layer 2 port are always filtered by the port ACL.
•If you apply an ACL to a Layer 3 interface and routing is not enabled on the switch, the ACL only filters packets that are intended for the CPU, such as SNMP, Telnet, or web traffic. You do not have to enable routing to apply ACLs to Layer 2 interfaces.
•When private VLANs are configured, you can apply router ACLs only on the primary-VLAN SVIs. The ACL is applied to both primary and secondary VLAN Layer 3 traffic.
Note By default, the router sends Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) unreachable messages when a packet is denied by an access group. These access-group denied packets are not dropped in hardware but are bridged to the switch CPU so that it can generate the ICMP-unreachable message. Port ACLs are an exception. They do not generate ICMP unreachable messages.
ICMP unreachable messages can be disabled on router ACLs with the no ip unreachables interface command.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to control access to an interface:
To remove the specified access group, use the no ip access-group {access-list-number | name} {in | out} interface configuration command.
This example shows how to apply access list 2 to a port to filter packets entering the port:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Router(config-if)# ip access-group 2 in
Note When you apply the ip access-group interface configuration command to a Layer 3 interface (an SVI, a Layer 3 EtherChannel, or a routed port), the interface must have been configured with an IP address. Layer 3 access groups filter packets that are routed or are received by Layer 3 processes on the CPU. They do not affect packets bridged within a VLAN.
For inbound ACLs, after receiving a packet, the switch checks the packet against the ACL. If the ACL permits the packet, the switch continues to process the packet. If the ACL rejects the packet, the switch discards the packet.
For outbound ACLs, after receiving and routing a packet to a controlled interface, the switch checks the packet against the ACL. If the ACL permits the packet, the switch sends the packet. If the ACL rejects the packet, the switch discards the packet.
By default, the input interface sends ICMP Unreachable messages whenever a packet is discarded, regardless of whether the packet was discarded because of an ACL on the input interface or because of an ACL on the output interface. ICMP Unreachables are normally limited to no more than one every one-half second per input interface, but this can be changed by using the ip icmp rate-limit unreachable global configuration command.
When you apply an undefined ACL to an interface, the switch acts as if the ACL has not been applied to the interface and permits all packets. Remember this behavior if you use undefined ACLs for network security.
Hardware and Software Treatment of IP ACLs
ACL processing is primarily accomplished in hardware, but requires forwarding of some traffic flows to the CPU for software processing. If the hardware reaches its capacity to store ACL configurations, packets are sent to the CPU for forwarding. The forwarding rate for software-forwarded traffic is substantially less than for hardware-forwarded traffic.
Note If an ACL configuration cannot be implemented in hardware due to an out-of-resource condition on a switch or stack member, then only the traffic in that VLAN arriving on that switch is affected (forwarded in software). Software forwarding of packets might adversely impact the performance of the switch or switch stack, depending on the number of CPU cycles that this consumes.
For router ACLs, other factors can cause packets to be sent to the CPU:
•Using the log keyword
•Generating ICMP unreachable messages
When traffic flows are both logged and forwarded, forwarding is done by hardware, but logging must be done by software. Because of the difference in packet handling capacity between hardware and software, if the sum of all flows being logged (both permitted flows and denied flows) is of great enough bandwidth, not all of the packets that are forwarded can be logged.
If router ACL configuration cannot be applied in hardware, packets arriving in a VLAN that must be routed are routed in software, but are bridged in hardware. If ACLs cause large numbers of packets to be sent to the CPU, the switch performance can be negatively affected.
When you enter the show ip access-lists privileged EXEC command, the match count displayed does not account for packets that are access controlled in hardware. Use the show access-lists hardware counters privileged EXEC command to obtain some basic hardware ACL statistics for switched and routed packets.
Router ACLs function as follows:
•The hardware controls permit and deny actions of standard and extended ACLs (input and output) for security access control.
•If log has not been specified, the flows that match a deny statement in a security ACL are dropped by the hardware if ip unreachables is disabled. The flows matching a permit statement are switched in hardware.
•Adding the log keyword to an ACE in a router ACL causes a copy of the packet to be sent to the CPU for logging only. If the ACE is a permit statement, the packet is still switched and routed in hardware.
Troubleshooting ACLs
If this ACL manager message appears and [chars] is the access-list name,
ACLMGR-2-NOVMR: Cannot generate hardware representation of access list [chars]
The switch has insufficient resources to create a hardware representation of the ACL. The resources include hardware memory and label space but not CPU memory. A lack of available logical operation units or specialized hardware resources causes this problem. Logical operation units are needed for a TCP flag match or a test other than eq (ne, gt, lt, or range) on TCP, UDP, or SCTP port numbers.
Use one of these workarounds:
•Modify the ACL configuration to use fewer resources.
•Rename the ACL with a name or number that alphanumerically precedes the ACL names or numbers.
To determine the specialized hardware resources, enter the show platform layer4 acl map privileged EXEC command. If the switch does not have available resources, the output shows that index 0 to index 15 are not available.
For more information about configuring ACLs with insufficient resources, see CSCsq63926 in the Bug Toolkit.
For example, if you apply this ACL to an interface:
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard range 5 60
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard range 15 160
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard range 115 1660
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard
And if this message appears:
ACLMGR-2-NOVMR: Cannot generate hardware representation of access list [chars]
The flag-related operators are not available. To avoid this issue,
•Move the fourth ACE before the first ACE by using ip access-list resequence global configuration command:
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard range 5 60
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard range 15 160
permit tcp source source-wildcard destination destination-wildcard range 115 1660
or
•Rename the ACL with a name or number that alphanumerically precedes the other ACLs (for example, rename ACL 79 to ACL 1).
You can now apply the first ACE in the ACL to the interface. The switch allocates the ACE to available mapping bits in the Opselect index and then allocates flag-related operators to use the same bits in the hardware memory.
IPv4 ACL Configuration Examples
This section provides examples of configuring and applying IPv4 ACLs. For detailed information about compiling ACLs, see the Cisco IOS Security Configuration Guide, Release 12.2 and to the Configuring IP Services" section in the "IP Addressing and Services" chapter of the Cisco IOS IP Configuration Guide, Release 12.2.
Figure 35-3 shows a small networked office environment with routed Port 2 connected to blade server A, containing benefits and other information that all employees can access, and routed Port 1 connected to blade server B, containing confidential payroll data. All users can access blade server A, but Blade server B has restricted access.
Use router ACLs to do this in one of two ways:
•Create a standard ACL, and filter traffic coming to the server from port 1.
•Create an extended ACL, and filter traffic coming from the server into port 1.
Figure 35-3 Using Router ACLs to Control Traffic
This example uses a standard ACL to filter traffic coming into blade server B from a port, permitting traffic only from Accounting's source addresses 172.20.128.64 to 172.20.128.95. The ACL is applied to traffic coming out of routed Port 1 from the specified source address.
Switch(config)# access-list 6 permit 172.20.128.64 0.0.0.31
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show access-lists
Standard IP access list 6
10 permit 172.20.128.64, wildcard bits 0.0.0.31
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 6 out
This example uses an extended ACL to filter traffic coming from blade server B into a port, permitting traffic from any source address (in this case Server B) to only the Accounting destination addresses 172.20.128.64 to 172.20.128.95. The ACL is applied to traffic going into routed Port 1, permitting it to go only to the specified destination addresses. Note that with extended ACLs, you must enter the protocol (IP) before the source and destination information.
Switch(config)# access-list 106 permit ip any 172.20.128.64 0.0.0.31
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show access-lists
Extended IP access list 106
10 permit ip any 172.20.128.64 0.0.0.31
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 106 in
Numbered ACLs
In this example, network 36.0.0.0 is a Class A network whose second octet specifies a subnet; that is, its subnet mask is 255.255.0.0. The third and fourth octets of a network 36.0.0.0 address specify a particular host. Using access list 2, the switch accepts one address on subnet 48 and reject all others on that subnet. The last line of the list shows that the switch accepts addresses on all other network 36.0.0.0 subnets. The ACL is applied to packets entering a port.
Switch(config)# access-list 2 permit 36.48.0.3
Switch(config)# access-list 2 deny 36.48.0.0 0.0.255.255
Switch(config)# access-list 2 permit 36.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 2 in
Extended ACLs
In this example, the first line permits any incoming TCP connections with destination ports greater than 1023. The second line permits incoming TCP connections to the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) port of host 128.88.1.2. The third line permits incoming ICMP messages for error feedback.
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255 gt 1023
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any host 128.88.1.2 eq 25
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit icmp any any
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 102 in
For another example of using an extended ACL, suppose that you have a network connected to the Internet, and you want any host on the network to be able to form TCP connections to any host on the Internet. However, you do not want IP hosts to be able to form TCP connections to hosts on your network, except to the mail (SMTP) port of a dedicated mail host.
SMTP uses TCP port 25 on one end of the connection and a random port number on the other end. The same port numbers are used throughout the life of the connection. Mail packets coming in from the Internet have a destination port of 25. Outbound packets have the port numbers reversed. Because the secure system of the network always accepts mail connections on port 25, the incoming and outgoing services are separately controlled. The ACL must be configured as an input ACL on the outbound interface and an output ACL on the inbound interface.
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255 eq 23
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255 eq 25
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 102 in
In this example, the network is a Class B network with the address 128.88.0.0, and the mail host address is 128.88.1.2. The established keyword is used only for the TCP to show an established connection. A match occurs if the TCP datagram has the ACK or RST bits set, which show that the packet belongs to an existing connection. Gigabit Ethernet interface 1 on stack member 1 is the interface that connects the router to the Internet.
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any 128.88.0.0 0.0.255.255 established
Switch(config)# access-list 102 permit tcp any host 128.88.1.2 eq 25
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 102 in
Named ACLs
This example creates a standard ACL named internet_filter and an extended ACL named marketing_group. The internet_filter ACL allows all traffic from the source address 1.2.3.4.
Switch(config)# ip access-list standard Internet_filter
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit 1.2.3.4
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
The marketing_group ACL allows any TCP Telnet traffic to the destination address and wildcard 171.69.0.0 0.0.255.255 and denies any other TCP traffic. It permits any other IP traffic. It permits ICMP traffic, denies UDP traffic from any source to the destination address range 171.69.0.0 through 179.69.255.255 with a destination port less than 1024, denies any other IP traffic, and provides a log of the result.
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended marketing_group
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any 171.69.0.0 0.0.255.255 eq telnet
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny tcp any any
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit icmp any any
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny udp any 171.69.0.0 0.0.255.255 lt 1024
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny ip any any log
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
The Internet_filter ACL is applied to outgoing traffic and the marketing_group ACL is applied to incoming traffic on a Layer 3 port.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet3/0/2
Switch(config-if)# no switchport
Switch(config-if)# ip address 2.0.5.1 255.255.255.0
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group Internet_filter out
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group marketing_group in
Time Range Applied to an IP ACL
This example denies HTTP traffic on IP on Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m (18:00). The example allows UDP traffic only on Saturday and Sunday from noon to 8:00 p.m. (20:00).
Switch(config)# time-range no-http
Switch(config)# periodic weekdays 8:00 to 18:00
!
Switch(config)# time-range udp-yes
Switch(config)# periodic weekend 12:00 to 20:00
!
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended strict
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny tcp any any eq www time-range no-http
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit udp any any time-range udp-yes
!
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group strict in
Commented IP ACL Entries
In this example of a numbered ACL, the server that belongs to Jones is allowed access, and the workstation that belongs to Smith is not allowed access:
Switch(config)# access-list 1 remark Permit only Jones server through
Switch(config)# access-list 1 permit 171.69.2.88
Switch(config)# access-list 1 remark Do not allow Smith server through
Switch(config)# access-list 1 deny 171.69.3.13
In this example of a numbered ACL, the Winter and Smith servers are not allowed to browse the web:
Switch(config)# access-list 100 remark Do not allow Winter to browse the web
Switch(config)# access-list 100 deny host 171.69.3.85 any eq www
Switch(config)# access-list 100 remark Do not allow Smith to browse the web
Switch(config)# access-list 100 deny host 171.69.3.13 any eq www
In this example of a named ACL, the Jones subnet is not allowed access:
Switch(config)# ip access-list standard prevention
Switch(config-std-nacl)# remark Do not allow Jones subnet through
Switch(config-std-nacl)# deny 171.69.0.0 0.0.255.255
In this example of a named ACL, the Jones subnet is not allowed to use outbound Telnet:
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended telnetting
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# remark Do not allow Jones subnet to telnet out
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny tcp 171.69.0.0 0.0.255.255 any eq telnet
ACL Logging
Two variations of logging are supported on router ACLs. The log keyword sends an informational logging message to the console about the packet that matches the entry; the log-input keyword includes the input interface in the log entry.
In this example, standard named access list stan1 denies traffic from 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255, allows traffic from all other sources, and includes the log keyword.
Switch(config)# ip access-list standard stan1
Switch(config-std-nacl)# deny 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 log
Switch(config-std-nacl)# permit any log
Switch(config-std-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group stan1 in
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch# show logging
Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
Console logging: level debugging, 37 messages logged
Monitor logging: level debugging, 0 messages logged
Buffer logging: level debugging, 37 messages logged

00:10:11:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGS:list stan1 permitted 0.0.0.0 1 packet
This example is a named extended access list ext1 that permits ICMP packets from any source to 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 and denies all UDP packets.
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended ext1
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit icmp any 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 log
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# deny udp any any log
Switch(config-std-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/2
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group ext1 in
This is a an example of a log for an extended ACL:
01:24:23:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGDP:list ext1 permitted icmp 10.1.1.15 -> 10.1.1.61 (0/0), 1 packet
01:25:14:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGDP:list ext1 permitted icmp 10.1.1.15 -> 10.1.1.61 (0/0), 7 packets
01:26:12:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGP:list ext1 denied udp 0.0.0.0(0) -> 255.255.255.255(0), 1 packet
01:31:33:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGP:list ext1 denied udp 0.0.0.0(0) -> 255.255.255.255(0), 8 packets
Note that all logging entries for IP ACLs start with %SEC-6-IPACCESSLOG with minor variations in format depending on the kind of ACL and the access entry that has been matched.
This is an example of an output message when the log-input keyword is entered:
00:04:21:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGDP:list inputlog permitted icmp 10.1.1.10 (Vlan1 0001.42ef.a400) -> 10.1.1.61 (0/0), 1 packet
A log message for the same sort of packet using the log keyword does not include the input interface information:
00:05:47:%SEC-6-IPACCESSLOGDP:list inputlog permitted icmp 10.1.1.10 -> 10.1.1.61 (0/0), 1 packet
Creating Named MAC Extended ACLs
You can filter non-IPv4 traffic on a VLAN or on a Layer 2 interface by using MAC addresses and named MAC extended ACLs. The procedure is similar to that of configuring other extended named ACLs.
Note You cannot apply named MAC extended ACLs to Layer 3 interfaces.
For more information about the supported non-IP protocols in the mac access-list extended command, see the command reference for this release.
Note Though visible in the command-line help strings, appletalk is not supported as a matching condition for the deny and permit MAC access-list configuration mode commands.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create a named MAC extended ACL:
Use the no mac access-list extended name global configuration command to delete the entire ACL. You can also delete individual ACEs from named MAC extended ACLs.
This example shows how to create and display an access list named mac1, denying only EtherType DECnet Phase IV traffic, but permitting all other types of traffic.
Switch(config)# mac access-list extended mac1
Switch(config-ext-macl)# deny any any decnet-iv
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit any any
Switch(config-ext-macl)# end
Switch # show access-lists
Extended MAC access list mac1
10 deny any any decnet-iv
20 permit any any
Applying a MAC ACL to a Layer 2 Interface
After you create a MAC ACL, you can apply it to a Layer 2 interface to filter non-IP traffic coming in that interface. When you apply the MAC ACL, consider these guidelines:
•If you apply an ACL to a Layer 2 interface that is a member of a VLAN, the Layer 2 (port) ACL takes precedence over a VLAN map applied to the VLAN. Incoming packets received on the Layer 2 port are always filtered by the port ACL.
•If you apply an ACL to a Layer 2 interface that is a member of a VLAN, the Layer 2 (port) ACL takes precedence over an input Layer 3 ACL applied to the VLAN interface or a VLAN map applied to the VLAN. Incoming packets received on the Layer 2 port are always filtered by the port ACL.
•You can apply no more than one IP access list and one MAC access list to the same Layer 2 interface. The IP access list filters only IP packets, and the MAC access list filters non-IP packets.
•A Layer 2 interface can have only one MAC access list. If you apply a MAC access list to a Layer 2 interface that has a MAC ACL configured, the new ACL replaces the previously configured one.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to apply a MAC access list to control access to a Layer 2 interface:
To remove the specified access group, use the no mac access-group {name} interface configuration command.
This example shows how to apply MAC access list mac1 to a port to filter packets entering the port:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/2
Router(config-if)# mac access-group mac1 in
Note The mac access-group interface configuration command is only valid when applied to a physical Layer 2 interface.You cannot use the command on EtherChannel port channels.
After receiving a packet, the switch checks it against the inbound ACL. If the ACL permits it, the switch continues to process the packet. If the ACL rejects the packet, the switch discards it. When you apply an undefined ACL to an interface, the switch acts as if the ACL has not been applied and permits all packets. Remember this behavior if you use undefined ACLs for network security.
Configuring VLAN Maps
This section describes how to configure VLAN maps, which is the only way to control filtering within a VLAN. VLAN maps have no direction. To filter traffic in a specific direction by using a VLAN map, you need to include an ACL with specific source or destination addresses. If there is a match clause for that type of packet (IP or MAC) in the VLAN map, the default action is to drop the packet if the packet does not match any of the entries within the map. If there is no match clause for that type of packet, the default is to forward the packet.
For complete syntax and usage information for the commands used in this section, see the command reference for this release.
To create a VLAN map and apply it to one or more VLANs, perform these steps:
Step 1 Create the standard or extended IPv4 ACLs or named MAC extended ACLs that you want to apply to the VLAN. See the "Creating Standard and Extended IPv4 ACLs" section and the "Creating a VLAN Map" section.
Step 2 Enter the vlan access-map global configuration command to create a VLAN ACL map entry.
Step 3 In access-map configuration mode, optionally enter an action—forward (the default) or drop—and enter the match command to specify an IP packet or a non-IP packet (with only a known MAC address) and to match the packet against one or more ACLs (standard or extended).
Note If the VLAN map is configured with a match clause for a type of packet (IP or MAC) and the map action is drop, all packets that match the type are dropped. If the VLAN map has no match clause, and the configured action is drop, all IP and Layer 2 packets are dropped.
Step 4 Use the vlan filter global configuration command to apply a VLAN map to one or more VLANs.
These sections contain this configuration information:
•VLAN Map Configuration Guidelines
•Applying a VLAN Map to a VLAN
•Using VLAN Maps in Your Network
VLAN Map Configuration Guidelines
Follow these guidelines when configuring VLAN maps:
•If there is no ACL configured to deny traffic on an interface and no VLAN map is configured, all traffic is permitted.
•Each VLAN map consists of a series of entries. The order of entries in an VLAN map is important. A packet that comes into the switch is tested against the first entry in the VLAN map. If it matches, the action specified for that part of the VLAN map is taken. If there is no match, the packet is tested against the next entry in the map.
•If the VLAN map has at least one match clause for the type of packet (IP or MAC) and the packet does not match any of these match clauses, the default is to drop the packet. If there is no match clause for that type of packet in the VLAN map, the default is to forward the packet.
•The system might take longer to boot up if you have configured a very large number of ACLs.
•Logging is not supported for VLAN maps.
•If VLAN map configuration cannot be applied in hardware, all packets in that VLAN must be forwarded by software.
•When a switch has an IP access list or MAC access list applied to a Layer 2 interface, and you apply a VLAN map to a VLAN that the port belongs to, the port ACL takes precedence over the VLAN map.
•On a Catalyst Switch Module 3110, if VLAN map configuration cannot be applied in hardware, all packets in that VLAN must be bridged and routed by software.
•On a Catalyst Switch Module 3012, if VLAN map configuration cannot be applied in hardware, all packets in that VLAN must be routed by software.
•You can configure VLAN maps on primary and secondary VLANs. However, we recommend that you configure the same VLAN maps on private-VLAN primary and secondary VLANs.
•When a frame is Layer-2 forwarded within a private VLAN, the same VLAN map is applied at the ingress side and at the egress side. When a frame is routed from inside a private VLAN to an external port, the private-VLAN map is applied at the ingress side.
–For frames going upstream from a host port to a promiscuous port, the VLAN map configured on the secondary VLAN is applied.
–For frames going downstream from a promiscuous port to a host port, the VLAN map configured on the primary VLAN is applied.
To filter out specific IP traffic for a private VLAN, you should apply the VLAN map to both the primary and secondary VLANs. For more information about private VLANs, see Chapter 16 "Configuring Private VLANs."
For configuration examples, see the "Using VLAN Maps in Your Network" section.
For information about using both router ACLs and VLAN maps, see the "VLAN Maps and Router ACL Configuration Guidelines" section.
Creating a VLAN Map
Each VLAN map consists of an ordered series of entries. Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to create, add to, or delete a VLAN map entry:
Use the no vlan access-map name global configuration command to delete a map. Use the no vlan access-map name number global configuration command to delete a single sequence entry from within the map.
Use the no action access-map configuration command to enforce the default action, which is to forward.
VLAN maps do not use the specific permit or deny keywords. To deny a packet by using VLAN maps, create an ACL that would match the packet, and set the action to drop. A permit in the ACL counts as a match. A deny in the ACL means no match.
Examples of ACLs and VLAN Maps
These examples show how to create ACLs and VLAN maps that for specific purposes.
Example 1
This example shows how to create an ACL and a VLAN map to deny a packet. In the first map, any packets that match the ip1 ACL (TCP packets) would be dropped. You first create the ip1ACL to permit any TCP packet and no other packets. Because there is a match clause for IP packets in the VLAN map, the default action is to drop any IP packet that does not match any of the match clauses.
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended ip1
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any any
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map map_1 10
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address ip1
Switch(config-access-map)# action drop
This example shows how to create a VLAN map to permit a packet. ACL ip2 permits UDP packets and any packets that match the ip2 ACL are forwarded. In this map, any IP packets that did not match any of the previous ACLs (that is, packets that are not TCP packets or UDP packets) would get dropped.
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended ip2
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit udp any any
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map map_1 20
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address ip2
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Example 2
In this example, the VLAN map has a default action of drop for IP packets and a default action of forward for MAC packets. Used with standard ACL 101 and extended named access lists igmp-match and tcp-match, the map will have the following results:
•Forward all UDP packets
•Drop all IGMP packets
•Forward all TCP packets
•Drop all other IP packets
•Forward all non-IP packets
Switch(config)# access-list 101 permit udp any any
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended igmp-match
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit igmp any any
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended tcp-match
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any any
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-ip-default 10
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address 101
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Switch(config-access-map)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-ip-default 20
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address igmp-match
Switch(config-access-map)# action drop
Switch(config-access-map)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-ip-default 30
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address tcp-match
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Example 3
In this example, the VLAN map has a default action of drop for MAC packets and a default action of forward for IP packets. Used with MAC extended access lists good-hosts and good-protocols, the map will have the following results:
•Forward MAC packets from hosts 0000.0c00.0111 and 0000.0c00.0211
•Forward MAC packets with decnet-iv or vines-ip protocols
•Drop all other non-IP packets
•Forward all IP packets
Switch(config)# mac access-list extended good-hosts
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit host 000.0c00.0111 any
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit host 000.0c00.0211 any
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# mac access-list extended good-protocols
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit any any decnet-ip
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit any any vines-ip
Switch(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-mac-default 10
Switch(config-access-map)# match mac address good-hosts
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Switch(config-access-map)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-mac-default 20
Switch(config-access-map)# match mac address good-protocols
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Example 4
In this example, the VLAN map has a default action of drop for all packets (IP and non-IP). Used with access lists tcp-match and good-hosts from Examples 2 and 3, the map will have the following results:
•Forward all TCP packets
•Forward MAC packets from hosts 0000.0c00.0111 and 0000.0c00.0211
•Drop all other IP packets
•Drop all other MAC packets
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-all-default 10
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address tcp-match
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Switch(config-access-map)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan access-map drop-all-default 20
Switch(config-access-map)# match mac address good-hosts
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Applying a VLAN Map to a VLAN
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to apply a VLAN map to one or more VLANs:
To remove the VLAN map, use the no vlan filter mapname vlan-list list global configuration command.
This example shows how to apply VLAN map 1 to VLANs 20 through 22:
Switch(config)# vlan filter map 1 vlan-list 20-22
Using VLAN Maps in Your Network
These sections describes how to deny access to a server on another VLAN (see the "Denying Access to a Server on Another VLAN" section).
Denying Access to a Server on Another VLAN
You can restrict access to a server on another VLAN. For example, server 10.1.1.100 in VLAN 10 needs to have access denied to these hosts (see Figure 35-4):
•Hosts in subnet 10.1.2.0/8 in VLAN 20 should not have access.
•Hosts 10.1.1.4 and 10.1.1.8 in VLAN 10 should not have access.
Figure 35-4 Deny Access to a Server on Another VLAN
This example shows how to deny access to a server on another VLAN by creating the VLAN map SERVER 1 that denies access to hosts in subnet 10.1.2.0.8, host 10.1.1.4, and host 10.1.1.8 and permits other IP traffic. The final step is to apply the map SERVER1 to VLAN 10.
Step 1 Define the IP ACL that will match the correct packets.
Switch(config)# ip access-list extended SERVER1_ACL
Switch(config-ext-nacl))# permit ip 10.1.2.0 0.0.0.255 host 10.1.1.100
Switch(config-ext-nacl))# permit ip host 10.1.1.4 host 10.1.1.100
Switch(config-ext-nacl))# permit ip host 10.1.1.8 host 10.1.1.100
Switch(config-ext-nacl))# exit
Step 2 Define a VLAN map using this ACL that will drop IP packets that match SERVER1_ACL and forward IP packets that do not match the ACL.
Switch(config)# vlan access-map SERVER1_MAP
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address SERVER1_ACL
Switch(config-access-map)# action drop
Switch(config)# vlan access-map SERVER1_MAP 20
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Switch(config-access-map)# exit
Step 3 Apply the VLAN map to VLAN 10.
Switch(config)# vlan filter SERVER1_MAP vlan-list 10.
Configuring VACL Logging
When you configure VACL logging, syslog messages are generated for denied IP packets under these circumstances:
•When the first matching packet is received.
•For any matching packets received within the last 5 minutes.
•If the threshold is reached before the 5-minute interval.
Log messages are generated on a per-flow basis. A flow is defined as packets with the same IP addresses and Layer 4 (UDP or TCP) port numbers. If a flow does not receive any packets in the 5-minute interval, that flow is removed from the cache. When a syslog message is generated, the timer and packet counter are reset.
VACL logging restrictions:
•Only denied IP packets are logged.
•Packets that require logging on the outbound port ACLs are not logged if they are denied by a VACL.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode:
Use the no vlan access-map command with a sequence number to delete a map sequence. Use the no version of the command without a sequence number to delete the map.
This example shows how to configure a VLAN access map to drop and log IP packets. Here IP traffic matching the permit entries in net_10 is dropped and logged.
DomainMember(config)# vlan access-map ganymede 10
DomainMember(config-access-map)# match ip address net_10
DomainMember(config-access-map)# action drop log
DomainMember(config-access-map)# exit
This example shows how to configure global VACL logging parameters:
DomainMember(config)# vlan access-log maxflow 800
DomainMember(config)# vlan access-log threshold 4000
Note For complete syntax and usage information of the commands used in this section, see the Cisco IOS LAN Switching Command Reference:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/lanswitch/command/reference/lsw_book.html
Using VLAN Maps with Router ACLs
To access control both bridged and routed traffic, you can use VLAN maps only or a combination of router ACLs and VLAN maps. You can define router ACLs on both input and output routed VLAN interfaces, and you can define a VLAN map to access control the bridged traffic.
If a packet flow matches a VLAN-map deny clause in the ACL, regardless of the router ACL configuration, the packet flow is denied.
Note When you use router ACLs with VLAN maps, packets that require logging on the router ACLs are not logged if they are denied by a VLAN map.
If the VLAN map has a match clause for the type of packet (IP or MAC) and the packet does not match the type, the default is to drop the packet. If there is no match clause in the VLAN map, and no action specified, the packet is forwarded if it does not match any VLAN map entry.
These sections contain information about using VLAN maps with router ACLs:
•VLAN Maps and Router ACL Configuration Guidelines
•Examples of Router ACLs and VLAN Maps Applied to VLANs
VLAN Maps and Router ACL Configuration Guidelines
These guidelines are for configurations where you need to have an router ACL and a VLAN map on the same VLAN. These guidelines do not apply to configurations where you are mapping router ACLs and VLAN maps on different VLANs.
The switch hardware provides one lookup for security ACLs for each direction (input and output); therefore, you must merge a router ACL and a VLAN map when they are configured on the same VLAN. Merging the router ACL with the VLAN map might significantly increase the number of ACEs.
If you must configure a router ACL and a VLAN map on the same VLAN, use these guidelines for both router ACL and VLAN map configuration:
•You can configure only one VLAN map and one router ACL in each direction (input/output) on a VLAN interface.
•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:
permit...
permit...
permit...
deny ip any any
or
deny...
deny...
deny...
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.
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, bridged, 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.
ACLs and Switched Packets
Figure 35-5 shows how an ACL is applied on packets that are switched within a VLAN. Packets switched within the VLAN without being routed or forwarded by fallback bridging are only subject to the VLAN map of the input VLAN.
Figure 35-5 Applying ACLs on Switched Packets
ACLs and Bridged Packets
Figure 35-6 shows how an ACL is applied on fallback-bridged packets. For bridged packets, only Layer 2 ACLs are applied to the input VLAN. Only non-IP, non-ARP packets can be fallback-bridged.
Figure 35-6 Applying ACLs on Bridged Packets
ACLs and Routed Packets
Figure 35-7 shows how ACLs are applied on routed packets. For routed packets, the ACLs are applied in this order:
1. VLAN map for input VLAN
2. Input router ACL
3. Output router ACL
4. VLAN map for output VLAN
Figure 35-7 Applying ACLs on Routed Packets
ACLs and Multicast Packets
Figure 35-8 shows how ACLs are applied on packets that are replicated for IP multicasting. A multicast packet being routed has two different kinds of filters applied: one for destinations that are other ports in the input VLAN and another for each of the destinations that are in other VLANs to which the packet has been routed. The packet might be routed to more than one output VLAN, in which case a different router output ACL and VLAN map would apply for each destination VLAN.
The final result is that the packet might be permitted in some of the output VLANs and not in others. A copy of the packet is forwarded to those destinations where it is permitted. However, if the input VLAN map (VLAN 10 map in Figure 35-8) drops the packet, no destination receives a copy of the packet.
Figure 35-8 Applying ACLs on Multicast Packets
Displaying IPv4 ACL Configuration
You can display the ACLs that are configured on the switch, and you can display the ACLs that have been applied to interfaces and VLANs.
When you use the ip access-group interface configuration command to apply ACLs to a Layer 2 interface, you can display the access groups on the interface. You can also display the MAC ACLs applied to a Layer 2 interface. You can use the privileged EXEC commands as described in Table 35-2 to display this information.
You can also display information about VLAN access maps or VLAN filters. Use the privileged EXEC commands in Table 35-3 to display VLAN map information.
