Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 User Guide Release 10.5.1

Egress ACL filters affect the traffic leaving the network. Configuring egress ACL filters onto physical interfaces protects the system infrastructure from a malicious and intentional attack by explicitly allowing only authorized traffic. These system-wide ACL filters eliminate the need to apply ACL filters onto each interface.

You can use an egress ACL filter to restrict egress traffic. For example, when you isolate denial of service (DoS) attack traffic to a specific interface, and apply an egress ACL filter to block the DoS flow from exiting the network, you protect downstream devices.

1. Apply an egress access-list on the interface in INTERFACE mode.

   ip access-group access-group-name out

2. Return to CONFIGURATION mode.

   exit

3. Create the access-list in CONFIGURATION mode.

   ip access-list access-list-name

4. Create the rules for the access-list in ACCESS-LIST mode.

   seq 10 deny ip any any count fragment

Apply rules to ACL filter

OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/29
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/29)# ip access-group egress out
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/29)# exit
OS10(config)# ip access-list egress
OS10(conf-ipv4-acl)# seq 10 deny ip any any count fragment
