Configure Association ACL Policy RulesNEW!

You must be in the process of configuring a new Association ACL policy or modifying and existing policy to use this procedure.

Use this procedure to create, modify, or delete Association ACL policy Rules.

  1. Choose from the following actions:
    • If you are in the process of configuring a new ACL policy, select to create a new rule. Proceed to the next step.
    • If you want to edit or delete an Association ACL policy rule, go to Policies > Association ACL.

      Select adjacent to the target Association ACL policy to open the Rules window. Choose from the following actions:

      • To edit an Association ACL policy rule, select adjacent to the rule you want to modify. Modify the rule in accordance with the steps in this procedure.

  2. Configure the Rule parameters as described in Association ACL Policy Rules Table Column Headings
    Table 1. Association ACL Policy Rule Parameters
    Parameter Description
    Association ACL If you are creating an new Association ACL, provide a name specific to its function. Avoid naming it after the WLAN it supports. The name cannot exceed 32 characters.
    Precedence The rules within a WLAN's ACL are applied to packets based on precedence. Every rule has a unique sequential precedence value you define. You cannot add two rules with the same precedence. The default precedence increments sequentially (starting at 1) with each new rule added, and can be modified. If, for example, you modify the default precedence value 3 to 6, and then add a new rule, the default precedence for the new rule will increment to 4, not 7. Therefore it is necessary to be vigilent when prioritizing ACLs as they are added.
