(ACLs). ACLs define points that need specific authorization. Generally, each
defines a distinct set of functionality for the server. ACIs define what operations
can or cannot be performed by a user, group, or IP address for that particular ACL.
You can change the default ACIs set up in the ACLs to change the privileges. You
