Access Rule Configuration
Use the Access Rule Configuration screen to add security access rules.
 To configure access rules:
1. Select Security > Access > Access Control > Access Rule Configuration.
2. From the Rule Type field, select the action to be performed when the rules selected are
matched.
A permit rule allows access by traffic that matches the rule criteria. A deny rule blocks
traffic that matches the rule criteria.
3. From the Service Type field, select the access method to which the rule is applied.
4. In the Source IP Address field, specify the IP address of the client from which the
management traffic originates
5. In the Mask field, specify the subnet mask of the client that originates the management
traffic.
6. In the Priority field, assign a priority to the rule.
The rules are validated against the incoming management request in the ascending order
of their priorities. If a rule matches, action is performed and subsequent rules below are
ignored. For example, if a Source IP 10.10.10.10 is configured with priority 1 to permit,
and Source IP 10.10.10.10 is configured with priority 2 to Deny, then access is permitted
if the profile is active, and the second rule is ignored.
7. Click the Apply button.
