Configuring the ACL configuration type and operations
To configure the ACL configuration type and operation, complete the following steps.
1. Select the configuration type by choosing one of the following options:
Incremental — Deploys add and delete operations. During deployment, the Management
application checks all ACLs to determine if the ACL name or number matches any ACL
number already deployed on a switch.
If the ACL name or number matches, the following actions occur:
Add operation — The ACL on the switch is overwritten by the one in configuration
during deployment.
Delete operation — Deletes the ACL from the switch during deployment.
No Action operation — Skips the ACL during deployment; however, if you save the
deployment the ‘no action’ ACL remains part of the configuration and can be added or
deleted at a later date.
If the ACL name or number does not match, the following actions occur:
Add operation — The ACL is appended on the switch.
No Action operation — Skips the ACL during deployment; however, if you save the
deployment the ‘no action’ ACL remains part of the configuration and can be added or
deleted at a later date.
Overwrite — Only deploys add operations. During deployment, the Management
application clears all ACLs currently on the switch and then applies the new configuration.
