Can an ACL Rule be changed without having to delete and restore the binding?
I set up Security > ACL > Basic > Mac Rule as follows: ACL Name = AllowFromPort5 ID = 2, Action = Permit, Match Every = False, Destin MAC = [MAC address of Device A], Destin Mask = 00:00:00:00:0...
I resolved the issue. The ACL Rule CAN be changed on the fly.
I was mislead (again) because (although I had added Permit for the DHCP server) I did not have a Permit for the Broadcast address, so the NAS was still losing it's IP address. During the moment when I would delete the binding, the NAS was sometimes able to renew its address.
ID = 5, Action = Permit, Match Every = False, Destin MAC = FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF, Destin Mask = 00:00:00:00:00:00
