9.7.3 Configuring Time Range
With this option you can configure access time range records for eventual
association with ACL rules. ACL rules associated with a time range record
will be active only during the scheduled period. If the ACL rule denies
HTTP access during 10:00hrs to 18:00hrs, then before 10:00hrs and after
18:00hrs the HTTP traffic will be permitted to pass through. One time
range record can contain up to three time periods. For example:
Office hours on weekdays (Mon-Fri) can have the following periods:
• Pre-lunch period between 9:00 and 13:00 Hrs
• Post-lunch period between 14:00 and 18:30 Hrs
Office hours on weekends (Saturday-Sunday) can have the following
periods:
• 9:00 to 12:00 Hrs
Such varying time periods can be configured into a single time range
record. Access rules can be activated based on these time periods.
