Exporting and Importing MAC Standard ACLs (Filters)
You can export the MAC standard ACLs (filters) configured on the Wireless Edge
Services zl Module to the local disk of the management station. Exporting the ACLs
enables you to archive them and also to upload them to another device that needs to
enforce the same policies.
The filters save as a .cvs file, which you can open with a spreadsheet application.
This file includes four columns for information in the ACL:
■ Station ACL Index
■ Starting MAC
■ Ending MAC
■ Allow/Deny
The first line in the file lists these four names. Each subsequent line specifies the
values associated with one of the exported ACLs.
You can also import a .cvs file to the Wireless Edge Services zl Module. In this way,
you can quickly configure all of your modules with the same MAC standard ACLs.
See “Importing MAC Standard ACLs” on page 12-84 for information on information
that the .cvs file must include.
Exporting MAC Standard ACLs
To export the MAC standard ACLs configured on your module, follow these steps:
1. Select Security > MAC Filters.
2. Select the ACL that you want to export.
If you want to export all of the ACLs in the same file, select an ACL and then
press
Ctrl+A.
