Configuring a Management Access List
Beginning in Privileged EXEC mode, use the following commands to create a 
management access list. There is an implicit deny-all rule at the end of every 
management ACL. This means that any host that does not meet the criteria 
defined in a permit command is denied access to the management interface.
NOTE: Management ACLs can be applied only to in-band ports and cannot be 
applied to the OOB port.
