Global Configuration Commands

Configures a global list of client MAC addresses. Based on the deny or permit rules specified,
clients are either allowed or denied access to the managed network.

The global association list serves the same purpose as an Association Access Control List (ACL).
However, the Association ACL allows a limited number of entries, a few thousand only, and does not
suffice the requirements of a large deployment. This gap is filled by a global association list, which
is much larger (with tens of thousands of entries). Both lists co-exist in the system. When an access
request comes in, the association ACL is looked up first and if the requesting MAC address is listed
in one of the deny ACLs, the association is denied. But, if the requesting client is permitted access,
or if in case none of the ACLs list the client’s MAC address, the global association ACL is checked.
Once authenticated, the client’s credentials are cached on the access point, and subsequent
requests are not referenced to the controller. An entry in an APs credential cache means a pass in
the global association list.
