NOTE

ACEs with lower precedence are always applied first to packets. Therefore, it is advised to add more
specific entries in the ACL first then the general ones. While displaying the ACL, the entries are
displayed in an ascending order of precedence.

Attaching an ACL on a WLAN interface/port

Use the Attach-WLAN tab to view and assign an ACL to a WLAN on the switch. If a MAC ACL is being
attached, create a ACL entry to allow arp with least precedence.

NOTE

WLAN based ACLs allows users to enforce rules/ACLs on both the inbound and outbound direction,
as opposed to Layer 2 ACLs, which just support the inbound direction.

To configure a WLAN ACL:

1. Select Security > Wireless Firewall from the main menu tree.

2. Click the Security Policy tab.

3. Click the Attach-WLAN tab.

4. Refer to the following information as displayed within the Attach-WLAN tab:

WLAN Index

Displays the list of WLANs attached with ACLs.

IP ACL

Displays the IP ACL configured.

MAC ACL

Displays the MAC ACL configured.

Direction

Displays whether the WLAN ACL is configured to work in an inbound or outbound
direction.
