Overview

One of a series of high performance Gigabit
Ethernet stackable switches from Allied Telesis,
the AT-8000GS/24POE provides high
performance Layer 2 switching in an affordable
fixed configuration platform combined with
Power over Ethernet for edge devices such as
IEEE 802.11n access points, IP phones or IP
cameras.This switch offers 24 10/100/1000
ports, with four combo 1Gbps SFP slots. Tw o
integrated stacking connectors deliver a total of
20Gbps stacking bandwidth.The stacking
capability integrated into this platform is
configured as a resilient r

Access Control Lists (ACLs)

Access Control Lists enable inspection of
incoming frames and classify them based on
various criteria. Specific actions can then be
applied to these frames in order to more
effectively manage the network traffic. Typically
ACLs are used as a security mechanism, either
permitting or denying entry (hence the name
Access Control) for frames in a group, but can
also be applied to QoS.

Supported ACL types are:

• IP ACLs – applicable to IP packet type.

All classification fields are related to IP
packets.

• MAC ACLs – classification fields are based on

Layer 2 fields.
