Associating the HTTPS Service with a Certificate Attribute Access Control Policy 1215
Associating the HTTPS 
Service with a 
Certificate Attribute 
Access Control Policy
Associating the HTTPS service with a configured certificate access control policy 
helps control the access right of the client, thus providing the device with 
enhanced security.
Follow these steps to associate the HTTPS service with a certificate attribute access 
control policy:
n
■ If the ip https certificate access-control-policy command is executed 
repeatedly, the HTTPS server is only associated with the last specified certificate 
attribute access control policy.
■ If the HTTPS service is associated with a certificate attribute access control 
policy, the client-verify enable command must be configured in the SSL 
server policy. Otherwise, the client cannot log onto the device.
■ If the HTTPS service is associated with a certificate attribute access control 
policy, the latter must contain at least one permit rule. Otherwise, no HTTPS 
client can log onto the device.
■ For the configuration of an SSL server policy, refer to “PKI Configuration” on 
page 1219.
Associating the HTTPS 
Service with an ACL
Associating the HTTPS service with an ACL can filter out requests from some 
clients to let pass only clients that pass the ACL filtering.
Follow these steps to associate the HTTPS service with an ACL:
n
If the ip https acl command is executed repeatedly, the HTTPS service is only 
associated with the last specified ACL.
