Configuration Templates : ACLs Template

ACLs Template
Use this page to create, modify, delete, and rename Access Control Lists (ACL).
An ACL is a reusable MATCH criteria for filtering flows, and is associated with an action, permit or deny: You can use the same ACL as the MATCH condition in more than one policy --- Route, QoS, or Optimization.
n

n
Deny prevents further procesing of the flow by that ACL, specifically. The appliance continues to the next entry in the policy.
n
Permit allows the matching traffic flow to proceed on to the policy entry's associated SET action(s). The default is permit.
n
When creating ACL rules, list deny statements first, and prioritize less restrictive rules ahead of more restrictive rules.
Priority
n
With this template, you can create rules with priority from 1000 – 9999, inclusive. When you apply the template to an appliance, the GMS deletes all appliance entries in that range before applying its policies.
n
If you access an appliance directly (via the WebUI or the command line interface), you can create rules with higher priority than GMS rules (1 – 999) and rules with lower priority (10000 – 65534).
n
Adding a rule increments the last Priority by 10. This leaves room for you to insert a rule in between rules without having to renumber subsequent priorities. Likewise, you can just edit the number.
