Specify the source port on which you want the operation to be performed. You can specify either a source port or a port range. If you leave the field blank, it will block all source ports for that specific rule.
Please choose the device from the drop-down list for which you want the action to be performed. After selecting the device, the IP range assigned to the device will be displayed. You can either specify the entire IP range or a specific IP of the selected device.
Please select a specific port or an entire port range for which the action should be performed.
While creating Access Control List, you can choose the protocol on which the action should be performed. Please select from the following protocols. The ACL will perform operations only on the selected protocol.
- UDP

- ICMP
ICMP message and Packet length
You can specify the ICMP message that you want to filter out. You can also specify the packet length so that any message with inappropriate packet length should be filtered out.
The command field specifies the operation that you wish to perform on the selected IP range. The operations that you wish to perform are the following -
