ACLs rules not working as expected

I am facing an issue with my ACLs configuration across the board, and I need some assistance to resolve it. I have set up several rules under IP extended rules and applied an IP binding configuration. Focusing on a subset of my network consists of three VLANs:

  1. VLAN 1: IP range 10.75.10.0/24
  2. VLAN 2: IP range 192.168.5.0/24
  3. VLAN 9: IP range 172.18.10.0/24

 

To allow specific services to work, I have configured certain IP/TCP ports.
To test the functionality of the ACL rules, I performed a simple ping test, and here are the results:

  1. Communication between VLAN 1 and VLAN 9: OPEN
  2. Communication between VLAN 1 and VLAN 5: BLOCKED
  3. Communication between VLAN 9 and VLAN 5: OPEN

What I expect ; 

  1. Communication between VLAN 1 and VLAN 9: OPEN
  2. Communication between VLAN 1 and VLAN 5: BLOCKED
  3. Communication between VLAN 9 and VLAN 5: BLOCKED

 

I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on why the ACL is not functioning as expected. Thank you in advance for your help!

    Port 0/45-0/48 are connected to Access Points and configured as UNTAGGED for VLAN 1, and TAGGED for VLAN 5 and 9. VLAN 5 and 9 are dedicated to wireless networks only.

     

    Goal is to stop communication between VLANs.
