Copy a Rule Across ASA Access Lists and Devices

You can copy an access control rule from one access list to another, either within the same ASA device or across different ASA devices managed in your CDO tenant.

Note

The paste operation fails if you attempt to add a rule that already exists in the access list.

Procedure


Step 1

In the left pane, click Inventory.

Step 2

Click the ASA tab and select an ASA device by checking the corresponding check box.

Step 3

In the Management pane on the right, click Policy.

Step 4

From the Selected Access List drop-down list, select an access list that you want.

Step 5

Select a rule by clicking the corresponding check box and in the Actions pane on the right, click Copy.

Step 6

Perform the following:

  • To paste the rule within the same ASA device, from the Selected Access List drop-down list, select an access list you want.
  • To paste the rule to a different ASA device, in the left pane, go to Inventory > select an ASA device > Policy > Selected Access List.

Step 7

To paste the copied rule in the desired position, select a rule that comes after where you want the new rule to be. In the Actions pane on the right, click Paste. The copied rule will be inserted before the selected rule.

You can use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to position the rule as needed.

Note

Alternatively, you can hover over a desired position in the rule listing table until you see Paste Rule Here, and then click it.
