Association ACL Deployment Considerations

Association ACL

Before defining an Association ACL configuration and applying it to a WLAN, refer to the following
deployment guidelines to ensure the configuration is optimally effective:

Precedence

The rules within a WLAN's ACL are applied to packets based on their precedence values. Every rule
has a unique sequential precedence value you define. You cannot add two rules’s with the same
precedence value. The default precedence is 1, so be careful to prioritize ACLs accordingly as they
are added.

Starting MAC Address

Provide a starting client MAC address for non unicast and multicast packet transmissions.

Ending MAC Address

Provide an ending MAC address for non unicast and multicast packet transmissions.

Allow/Deny

Use the drop-down menu to either Allow or Deny access if a MAC address matches this rule.
