  • Control access rule conflict detection
    Publication number: 20090138960
    Abstract: Methods and systems for access control systems such as firewalls. The system detects conflicts between two access control rules by finding all common variables between the two rules and determining if there are values for all the common variables that simultaneously satisfy both rules. If there are such values, and if the end result of the two rules are different, then the two rules are in conflict with one another.
