Re: Need to block download port

Hi,

 

This would be a typical job for the firewall I would believe, you could create an ACL on these switches to block some UDP/TCP ports and some IP ranges, but that would never block *all* downloads.

You need a device with more L7 capabilities, so that would typically not be your switch ...

 

Best regards,Peter
