IPv4-based ACLs
IPv4-based ACLs are used to check IPv4 packets, while other types of frames, 
such as ARPs, are not checked.
The following fields can be matched:
• IP protocol (by name for well-known protocols, or directly by value) 
• Source/destination ports for TCP/UDP traffic 
• Flag values for TCP frames 
• ICMP and IGMP type and code 
• Source/destination IP addresses (including wildcards) 
• DSCP/IP-precedence value 
NOTE ACLs are also used as the building elements of flow definitions for per-flow QoS 
handling.
The IPv4 Based ACL page enables adding ACLs to the system. The rules are 
defined in the IPv4 Based ACE page.
