Configuring access control list policies

Support for the Access Control List (ACL) policies is currently defined in the Switch Connection

Control (SCC) and Device Connection Control (DCC) policies. These policies are unlike the Secure

Fabric OS policies. In Secure Fabric OS where the SCC and DCC policies are always fabric wide

policies, these policies located in the Admin module are switch-based. ACL and Secure Fabric OS

are mutually exclusive. Unlike in Secure Fabric OS, SCC and DCC policy configuration in base Fabric

OS is performed on a switch-local basis.

Admin Domain considerations: ACL management can be done on AD255 and in AD0 only if other

there are no user-defined Admin Domains. Both AD0 (when no other user-defined Admin Domains

exist) and AD255 provide an unfiltered view of the fabric.
