Description

This function is called while calculating a work order for every Cisco device in order to determine whether one or more ACLs that will appear in the work order should be excluded. If an ACL is excluded, the check box next to it will appear unchecked when the user views the work order.

Tip: See $ExcludeACLsInWorkOrderByName configuration parameter for a simpler method to exclude ACLs based on regular expression matching on the ACL name. For details, see Work order parameters.
