the bottom half of the window shown above.
Access profiles allow users to establish criteria to determine whether or not the Switch will forward packets based on the
information contained in each packet's header. These criteria can be specified on a basis of Packet Content, MAC address, or IP
address.
Access Profile Table
Creating an access profile is divided into two basic parts. The first is to specify which part or parts of a frame the Switch will
examine, such as the MAC source address or the IP destination address. The second part is entering the criteria the Switch will use
to determine what to do with the frame. The entire process is described below in two parts.
