Enabling or Disabling a Network ACL

Scenarios

  • If a network ACL is disabled, custom rules will become invalid but default rules are still applied. As a result, all traffic to and from the associated subnets are denied. If a network ACL has a subnet associated, disabling it will interrupt the network traffic to and from the subnet.
  • If a network ACL is enabled, both custom and default rules are applied. If a network ACL has a subnet associated and has only default rules, enabling it will interrupt the network traffic to and from the subnet.

Procedure

  1. Go to the network ACL list page.
  2. In the network ACL list, enable or disable the target network ACL.

      1. Locate the target network ACL and choose More > Disable in the Operation column.
