Goal

Provide steps to restrict ssh access to RoCE switches only from certain source IPs

 NOTE: There is a risk of getting locked out .
To help avoid getting locked out, be sure to do the following before configuring the ACL
- Create a few ssh sessions into the switch before configuring the ACL . These can be used if necessary to remove a defective ACL list
- Be sure to configure the new ACL list from the node that owns the source IP that will be allowed to access the switch
If switch is not accessible, then console access will be required.
