Yes. To be completely pedantic it is an EUI access control. Since it
handles ARP MAC/EUI-48 in IPv4 traffic and SLAAC EUI-64 in IPv6 traffic.
We source the information wherever available, but it is not always
present so the ACL is not very reliable - particularly in the presence
of IPv6 static addressing or so-called privacy extensions.
