Usage Guidelines

Use this command to put user ACLs into "highest priority only" action resolution mode. All of the static policies and dynamic ACL rules that are installed after this command has been executed execute only the actions of the highest priority rule that has being matched, even if there are matches in the lower priority virtual slices with non-conflicting actions. This behavior is achieved by putting all virtual slices used by user ACLs into the same virtual group. However, all the policies and dynamic ACL rules that were installed prior to the execution of this command would stay in their separate virtual groups. As a result of this, the rules installed prior to the execution of this command will execute non- conflicting actions from the matches in lower priority virtual slices in addition to executing all the actions of the highest priority match. If a save and reboot was done after this command has being executed, all static policies and dynamic ACL rules will operate in "highest priority only" action resolution mode.
