Enabling and Disabling Access Control Rules

When you create an access control rule, it is enabled by default. If you disable a rule, the system does not use it to evaluate network traffic and stops generating warnings and errors for that rule. When viewing the list of rules in an access control policy, disabled rules are grayed out, although you can still modify them.

You can also enable or disable an access control rule using the rule editor.

Procedure


Step 1

In the access control policy editor, right-click the rule and choose a rule state.

If View (View button) appears next to a rule instead, the rule belongs to an ancestor policy, or you do not have permission to modify the rule.

Step 2

Click Save.
