9: Services Group Based System Access Control Field Enable Group Based System Access Control Default Action Rule creation and editing Description When this box is checked, the rules for IP based access are enforced. They are ignored when the box is not checked. If after evaluation of all rules a request for connection from a given IP address has not had either an Accept or Drop decision made, this selection can allow it to be either Accepted or Dropped. In other words, this drop-down defines the default action for IP addresses with no rules defined. Spider devices come from the factory with one rule defined as an example of the rule structure: Rule 1 allows all groups access from source IP 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255. Additional rules may be entered in the edit boxes. Rule Number: Defines where in the evaluation sequence this rule is to be applied. Starting and Ending IP Addresses: Define the range over which the rule applies. Group: Defines which user group is affected by this rule. Built-in groups include Admin, All, and Unknown (no group assigned). As additional groups are defined in User ManagementUsers Group Management, they will appear in the drop-down. A rule can apply to only one group at a time. Action: Chooses whether this is to be a Drop or Accept rule. After a rule has been defined, it needs to go in the correct place in the list. Append: Puts the rule at the end of the list. The rule number changes to reflect the last position on the list. Insert: Puts the rule in the place on the list indicated by the rule number, renumbering and moving down the other rules to make room. Replace: Deletes the previous rule of that number and replaces it with the new rule. Delete: Deletes the rule of that number and moves the others up. Note that for a Delete, the fields other than the rule number do not need to be filled in.
