The access control feature is a method for identifying, authenticating, and authorizing wireless devices that request access to the network server. The network security is managed by creating access control rules and policies that limit user access and deny access to devices that do not follow the access control rules and policies. This feature allows you to configure access policies from Layer 2 to Layer 7.

   The Policies & Profiles page is displayed.
2. In the Policies & Profiles page, click Access Control tile.
   The Access Control page is displayed defaulting to Wi-Fi tab and Access Control Set sub-tab. The Access Control Set sub-tab displays all Access Control policies, Access Control components, and network information in a table format.
