Manage Schedules

In Cisco Secure Access, you can configure Schedule resources to manage the enablement of internet access rules in the Access policy. A Schedule resource includes a time zone, start and end dates, and time periods in specific days of the week. Secure Access supports an unlimited number of Schedule resources in an organization.

After you add a Schedule resource in Secure Access, enable the Schedule Enablement Time and Date security setting on an internet access rule and include the Schedule resource on the rule. For information about enabling Schedules on internet access rules, see Schedule Enablement Time and Date.

About Configuring Schedule Resources

A Schedule resource requires multiple time-based configuration settings to manage the enablement of an internet access rule. Secure Access combines these configuration settings together in the Schedule resource:

  • The time zone for the selected dates and times.
  • The start and end dates selected on a days of the month calendar.
    • Choose the start date when Secure Access enables the access rule.
    • Choose the end date when Secure Access disables the access rule.
  • The start and end times during the 24-hour time period when Secure Access enables the access rule on the selected days of the week.
    • Choose the days of the week when Secure Access enables the access rule.
    • Choose the AM or PM hour in the 24-hour time period for the selected days of the week.

Guidelines for Creating Schedules

  • You can include a Schedule on an internet access rule only.
  • You do not have to enable an internet access rule to add the Schedule Enablement Time and Date security setting and Schedule.
  • If Secure Access enables an internet access rule with a Schedule and the Schedule expires, Secure Access disables the Schedule and the internet access rule in the Access policy.
  • After you include a Schedule on an internet access rule, Secure Access manages the enablement of the access rule according to the dates and times configured in the Schedule.
