Fix Recommendation

Configure the switch to use an inbound ACL on all internal interfaces as shown in the example below:

SW1(config)#int g0/2
SW1(config-if)#ip access-group EGRESS_FILTER in

Check Contents

Review the switch configuration to verify that the egress access control list (ACL) is bound to the internal interface in an inbound direction.

interface interface GigabitEthernet0/2
description downstream link to LAN
ip address 10.1.25.5 255.255.255.0
ip access-group EGRESS_FILTER in

If the switch is not configured to filter traffic leaving the network at the internal interface in an inbound direction, this is a finding.
