Enabling or Disabling a Network ACL

Scenarios

After a network ACL is created, you may need to enable it based on network security requirements. You can also disable an enabled network ACL if need. Before enabling a network ACL, ensure that subnets have been associated with the network ACL and that inbound and outbound rules have been added to the network ACL.

When a network ACL is disabled, custom rules will become invalid. Disabling a network ACL may interrupt network traffic. For information about the default network ACL rules, see Default Network ACL Rules.
