Unsupported Features on the Catalyst 3550 Switch

While the Catalyst 3550 switch supports many types of ACLs, it does not provide support for these IOS router ACL-related features:

  • Non-IP protocol ACLs.

  • Bridge-group ACLs.

  • IP accounting.

  • Inbound and outbound rate limiting (except with QoS ACLs).

  • IP packets with a header length of less than 5 are not access controlled (an ICMP parameter error results).

  • Reflexive ACLs.

  • Dynamic ACLs (except for certain specialized dynamic ACLs that are used by the switch-clustering feature).

  • For Layer 2 port ACLs, the switch does not support logging or outbound ACLs.
