ACLs are a common tool for matching routes. ACLs are classified into multiple types based on ACL rule functions. An ACL can be identified by a number, and the number range for each type of ACLs is different. Which of the following type of ACLs are numbered from 4000 to 4999?

Domain Route Control

Answer options
A: User-defined ACL
B: Basic ACL
C: Layer 2 ACL Correct answer
D: Advance ACL
Correct Answer:
C. Layer 2 ACL
Explanation

In Huawei's Versatile Routing Platform (VRP), Access Control Lists (ACLs) are categorized and identified by number ranges. The number range from 4000 to 4999 is specifically allocated for Layer 2 ACLs. These ACLs are used to filter data frames based on Layer 2 information, such as source MAC address, destination MAC address, 802.1p priority, and VLAN ID. This allows for granular traffic control at the data link layer within a local area network.

Why Incorrect

A. User-defined ACLs use the number range 5000-5999 to match packets against user-defined rule formats, which are more flexible than standard ACLs.
B. Basic ACLs use the number range 2000-2999 and filter packets based only on the source IP address.
D. Advanced ACLs (Advance is a common typo) use the number range 3000-3999 and can filter packets based on source/destination IP, protocol type, and port numbers.
