Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates generally to communication devices, and more particularly to generating communication traffic control rules for communication devices. Background technique
[0002] An Access Control List (ACL, Access Control List) is widely used in communication devices to filter Internet Protocol (IP) services. ACLs include a list of rules that are applied to packets based on fields in the packet header, such as source address, destination address, protocol ID, port ID, and the like. ACLs are typically applied in the data path of line cards that provide the interface between a communication device and the communication medium, and can be implemented in hardware for relatively simple rules, or implemented in hardware for more complex rules. implemented in software. ACLs may also be applied at the control card for traffic terminated at the communication device.
[0003] Various configuration settings may also be established for communic...
