Creating a schedule
Use schedules to control when policies are enforced. For example, you can use a schedule to control when an access control list policy is enforced.
NOTE: If the status of an ACL policy is inactive, the schedule is ignored.
You can create a one-time schedule, a recurring schedule, or a group schedule:
- Use a one-time schedule when you want a policy enforced for a specified period.
- Use a recurring schedule when you want a policy enforced for specified hours and days every week.
- Use a group schedule to combine one-time schedules and recurring schedules.
To create a one-time schedule:
config system schedule onetime
edit <schedule_name>
set start <time_date>
set end <time_date>
end
For example:
config system schedule onetime
edit schedule1
set start 07:00 2019/03/22
set end 07:00 2019/03/29
end
To create a recurring schedule:
config system schedule recurring
edit <schedule_name>
set day {monday | tuesday | wednesday | thursday | friday | saturday | sunday}
set start <time>
set end <time>
end
For example:
config system schedule recurring
edit schedule2
set day monday wednesday friday
set start 07:00
set end 08:00
end
To create a group schedule:
config system schedule group
edit <schedule_group_name>
set member <schedule_name1> <schedule_name2> ...
end
For example:
config system schedule group
edit group1
set member schedule1 schedule2
end
