ACL's & ACE's

[SnoopyDawg]

I have a cisco catalyst 3750 24 port switch. I want to setup ACLs/ACEs so that certain users/IP addresses/ etc cannot access all ports (can only access specific ports). I don't fully understand the concept of ACE's/ACL's and need some step-by-step guidance. Can anyone assist? Is there some simple documentation for this? I'm using Cisco Network Assistant to manage the switch.

Thanks

you probably want private vlans. this allows you to control individual port access in a single vlan. think of it as 'embedded vlans' - or a vlan within a vlan. some ports have access to all ports in the vlan, other ports have access to no other ports.

The information provided in the above link is "all good"; however, it is a lot of "technical theory" and "how-to's". Right now, I need more of a layman's solution specific to my need. I could call in an expert to do this but I'd rather state my need and have someone provide me with the specific, step-by-step instructions to accomplish the task.

I will re-post more specifics about my requirements in a few days.

Thanks
